In a large pot, combine the water and sliced ginger and bring to a rolling boil over high heat.
Ca. 5 min.
- 2
Carefully add the sweet potato cubes to the boiling water, then reduce the heat to maintain a steady simmer.
Kokkens note: Reducing the heat prevents the sweet potato from breaking apart too quickly.
- 3
Simmer for about 10 minutes until the sweet potato begins to soften.
Ca. 10 min.
- 4
Stir in the small tapioca pearls, making sure they don't clump together.
Ca. 1 min.
Kokkens note: Stirring for the first minute after adding the pearls helps prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pot.

Continue simmering for another 8-10 minutes, or until the sweet potatoes are fork-tender and the tapioca pearls are translucent.
Ca. 9 min.
- 6
Add the rock sugar and stir gently until it is completely dissolved.
