This is a simple, yet delicious dessert, the combination of black beans with coconut is quite good (I'd have thought of black beans as a savoury dish ingredient, and mostly in Western food, though it works well as a dessert).
Black Beans in Sweet Coconut Sauce1 cup dry black beans
3/4 cup coconut milk
salt to taste
1/3 cup palm sugar
2 Tbsp cane sugar
1/2 cup sliced young coconut meat
2 cups water
Soak the black beans in water overnight. They will swell to approximately double their size.
Place the beans in a steamer and steam for 30 minutes, until they are slightly tender.
Put the sugars, coconut milk, water, salt and young coconut meat together in a pan and boil on a medium heat until the sugar dissolves and the beans are tender.
