Where to find ingredients
To find 'polvilho doce' (sweet cassava starch) in the Philippines, check the baking or specialty aisles of large supermarkets for 'tapioca starch' or 'cassava starch'. If unavailable, Asian specialty stores or online marketplaces often carry it under the name 'tapioca flour'. For the cheese, any sharp, dry grated cheese or a good-quality quick-melt parmesan works well to get that signature savoriness. Cooking oil, milk, and eggs are staples found in any local palengke or supermarket.
Preparation method
- Toss the oil, milk, eggs, cassava starch, grated cheese, and salt into your blender
- Pulse and blend everything thoroughly until the mixture is completely smooth
- Preheat your oven to a medium setting
- Pour the batter into greased muffin or small tart molds
- Arrange the molds neatly inside a large baking tray
- Pop them in the oven and bake until they turn a beautiful golden brown
- Take them out of the molds while still warm and serve immediately
