Prepare the Ube: Position a steamer insert within a saucepan. Fill with water, ensuring it reaches just below the base of the steamer. Bring the water to a rolling boil. (Approximately 5 minutes)
Steam the Ube: Introduce the peeled ube to the steamer, cover the saucepan, and allow the ube to steam until it becomes tender and easily pierced with a fork. (Approximately 20 minutes)
Cool and Cube: Once steamed, remove the ube and let it cool until it's comfortable to handle. Proceed to cut the ube into small, manageable cubes. (Approximately 10 minutes)
Blend to Perfection: In a blender, combine 1/4 cup of the cubed ube, the milk, and the vanilla ice cream. Blend until the mixture achieves a smooth, velvety consistency. (Approximately 2 minutes)
