Reserve 1 cup for coating. Dust the bottom of a rectangular baking dish with ½ cup toasted flour. Set aside. In another pan over medium heat, combine coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Stir until sugar and salt are dissolved. Add ube (purple yam) and ube extract. Stir until fully incorporated. Bring to a boil. Slowly add the 3 cups of toasted rice flour.
