In a bowl, mix together grated sweet potatoes, brown sugar, ginger, vanilla extract, and melted butter until well combined.

Add coconut milk to the mixture, adjusting the amount to achieve desired consistency.

Transfer the mixture to a large pot and cook on medium heat for about 15 minutes until it browns slightly.

Grease a 9x9 inch pan and pour the mixture into it.

Bake in the oven at 350°F until golden brown, checking for doneness after a couple of hours.
