How to cook maja de ube:
In a wok, mix all ingredients together thoroughly. Make sure mixture is free of lumps. Cook in medium heat.
Turn to low when maja starts to boil. Stir continuously to prevent mixture from scorching. When mixture starts to glisten, maja is fully cooked.
Immediately transfer into baking casserole to set. Discard pandan leaves. Slice and serve when cool. Top with toasted grated coconut.
