Ube Halaya Recipe (Purple Yam Jam)
A delicious and versatile dessert made with just three ingredients: ube, coconut milk, and sugar.
Equipment
Potato Masher or Blender
Ingredients
1 pound mashed or grated cooked ube (purple yam), fresh or frozen see note
1 (13.5 fl oz) can coconut milk see note
⅔ cup granulated sugar see note
Instructions
1. Combine the grated ube, coconut milk, and granulated sugar in a large saucepan. You can blend it for a smoother mixture if desired.
2. Cook the mixture over medium heat, stirring constantly to prevent it from sticking.
3. Continue cooking for about 30 minutes or until it thickens to a smooth, paste-like consistency. Lower the heat if it splatters. Adjust the cooking time based on the ube's moisture content and desired consistency.
4. Remove the pan from the heat and let it cool for a few minutes. The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools.
5. Transfer to a container and let it cool completely before serving or refrigerating.
