Vakalolo is a Fijian desert that is steamed cooked  and is very popular among the people of the south Pacific .The Fijians  use grated  root crop .with grated coconut to make this desert.This is very tasty and yummy and is also very unique.I vividly remember grating cassava (yucca) when I was in high school and my brother will take charge to grate coconut which was much easier to do.Any way that is what happens when you are the youngest in the family.Yucca and coconut is a staple in all traditional Fijian dishes.Try this recipe and don't forget to leave me comment.
