Ingredients
- 200 grams black glutinous rice (black sticky rice)
- 1000 milliliters water
- 100 grams palm sugar (or brown sugar)
- 2 leaves pandan leaves
- 200 milliliters coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 0 as needed optional sweetened condensed milk or sugar (for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the black glutinous rice under cold running water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in clean water for at least 4 hours, or overnight if possible. This helps reduce the cooking time.
Step 2
Drain the soaked rice and transfer it to a medium-sized pot. Add 1000 milliliters of water and bring it to a boil over medium-high heat.
Step 3
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the pot partially, and let the rice simmer for about 60-70 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
Step 4
After the rice has softened and the mixture has thickened, add the palm sugar and pandan leaves. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Cook for an additional 15-20 minutes, or until the pudding reaches your desired consistency.
Step 5
In a small saucepan, mix the coconut milk with a pinch of salt. Heat over low heat until just warm. Do not boil.
Step 6
Serve the black sticky rice pudding warm or chilled. Spoon it into bowls and drizzle with the warm coconut milk. Optionally, add a bit of sweetened condensed milk or additional sugar for extra sweetness.
Step 7
Enjoy this comforting and flavorful dessert!
