Vipoopoo is a side dish mostly prepared during Ramadhan. I always feel like this would make a good desert; so I decided to modify this recipe to be just perfect for a dessert. I do believe we do need to modify our recipes. We do have nice recipes that can be used in different ways. Enjoy.
Ingredients
- 1 cup rice flour
- ¼ tsp Cardamon ground
- 1 cup Coconut milk
- ½ cup Sugar
- 1 cup Water
- Food color Optional
Preparations
- Boil water.
- Add rice flour; mix well with a wooden spoon until the mixture is hard.
- Divide into different parts depending on how many colors you are using.
- Add color in each and continue to mix until the color blend well.
- Make small balls of about ½ tea spoon full. set aside
Coconut syrup
- Mix sugar and coconut milk. Make sure the sugar is dissolved completely. Then boil the mixture.
- Put a few rice balls in the boiling coconut milk for about 5 minutes or until soft. Remove from the pot and place into dessert bowl. Repeat until all rice balls are cooked.
- When all balls are done. Increase the heat a little bit and let the coconut boil until it turns to heavy syrup. Remove from stove and let it cool.
- Pour the syrup to each bowl of rice balls. You can cover the balls with syrup or just put half. This will be your choice.
- Serve at room temperature.





Hi! I am really excited to make this recipe for a school project!! I don’t know how many servings this recipe makes, though. Could you tell me?? Thanks!!
enough for 4 to six people. it depends how much you want each person to eat. I won’t recommend to serve too much because it is very sweet.
I am extremely impressed together with your writing abilities and also with the layout on your weblog. Is this a paid subject or did you modify it your self? Anyway stay up the excellent quality writing, it is uncommon to see a nice weblog like this one nowadays..
Hi.i just came across your site last night and I cant stop reading all your recipes. I am from Burundi but I dont really know how to cook but am going to try your ways. Please if the book is out can you tell me how to get one.
Thanks for your personal marvelous posting! I certainly enjoyed reading it, you happen to be a great author.I will make certain to bookmark your blog and definitely will come back down the road. I want to encourage yourself to continue your great work, have a nice evening!
plz can you show to make mkate mimina as i m from tanzania but staying very far from tanzania
When do you put the cardomon, Rose?
Woooo! I should check in my book too. THanks for that.
My mom showed me to use the cardamom in the syrup. But I mix with the rice floor, it gives a better taste and it does not make the syrup dark. This is different from making “vipoopoo as a side dish”
I will update the recipe.
