After steaming, set the cassava aside first. Next, also steam the grated coconut which has been mixed with a little salt. Yup, this grated coconut must be steamed first so that your homemade getuk doesn't go stale quickly.
"We'll just steam it for a while. Actually, it's also fine if you don't steam it, but if you don't steam it it will go stale quickly," emphasized the netizen who is familiarly known as Mama Juna, quoted by BrilioFood from YouTube Mama Juna's Putri Kitchen on Tuesday (30/7).

While waiting for the grated coconut to be steamed, prepare a bowl with a plastic bottom. Then place the steamed cassava on top. When the grated coconut is cooked, mix it directly with the cassava.
Stir while pounding using a pestle. When the cassava is half crushed, add the granulated sugar. Pound the getuk mixture again until the texture becomes softer.
Next, add margarine and vanilla powder. So, margarine will work to soften and make the getuk dough less likely to crumble when shaped later. Meanwhile, vanilla will make the getuk even more fragrant.
Pound the getuk mixture again until it is really soft, then transfer it to the table. Flatten the getuk dough with a rolling pin and trim the edges. Cut the getuk into pieces according to your taste.
