👨‍🍳 निर्देश

1. 1

   In a large pot, combine cubed sweet potatoes with 2 cups of water, cinnamon sticks, cloves, and star anise. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat and simmer until sweet potatoes are very tender, about 20-25 minutes.

   ⏱️ 25 minutes
2. 2

   Remove cinnamon sticks, cloves, and star anise. Mash the sweet potatoes directly in the pot with a potato masher or blend with an immersion blender until mostly smooth, leaving some small chunks for texture.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Ensure all whole spices are removed before mashing.
3. 3

   Add evaporated milk, coconut milk, sweetened condensed milk, sugar, and vanilla extract to the pot. Stir well to combine.

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: Adjust sugar to your preferred sweetness.
4. 4

   Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until the dessert has thickened to your desired consistency.

   ⏱️ 20 minutes

   💡 पेशेवर सुझाव: The consistency should be like a thick soup.
5. 5

   If using, stir in the raisins during the last 5 minutes of simmering.

   ⏱️ 5 minutes
6. 6

   Remove from heat and let cool completely. Serve chilled, often with small, unsalted crackers or cookies.
