A traditional pancake made with fresh grated tapioca and coconut.
It has been over 10 years since I have eaten this Tapioca Pancake served by my late mum.
Those days, we have to prepare the tapioca from scratch. Peeling and grating was the first step for making this pancake. Today grated tapioca was readily available in the market.
Using a non stick pan eliminated the need to use excessive oil when frying them.
Tapioca Pancake can be eaten with sugar or dip in spicy gravy. Sugar could be added while mixing the batter for a sweet version. So I leave it to you to decide how you want to enjoy them.
