Peel and grate the taro until finely shredded.
In a large bowl, combine the grated taro, sugar, and salt.
Add baking powder and mix well to incorporate.
Pour in the coconut milk and vanilla extract, stirring until smooth.
Line a steaming dish with banana leaves, allowing some to hang over the edges.
Transfer the taro mixture into the lined dish, smoothing the top.
Fold the banana leaves over the mixture to cover it completely.
Prepare a steamer with water and bring it to a simmer.
Place the covered dish in the steamer and cover with a lid.
Steam for 45-60 minutes, or until the mixture is set and firm to the touch.
Remove from the steamer and let cool slightly before serving.
Slice into squares and serve warm or at room temperature.
