Pandan Pulut Inti

Ok, first traditionally the blue coloured rice that we normally seen is the result of using the extract of blue pea flower. But in here you can use food colouring. However i do not have so i replaced it with pandan paste. And i omitted pandan leaves while cooking the rice.

As for the wrapping, it is up to individual. I tried wrapping up to form a pyramid but failed so i simplified it into a rectangular-squarish shape as shown.

Ingredients
(makes 15-18)

400 g glutinous rice
200 ml water
200 ml coconut milk
1 tsp pandan paste
2 pinches of salt

150 g grated coconut
80 ml water
120 g gula melaka (chopped)

Method

1. Rinse the rice and soaked for 4 hours. Drain thoroughly.

2. Place the rice, salt, milk, water and pandan paste in the rice cooker, mix well and turn it on.

3. To make the filling - combine water and gula melaka in a small pot and cook over low heat until sugar dissolves. Add in the grated coconut and mix well. Off fire and simmer until the liquid dry up.

4. To assemble - place 1 tablespoon of rice in the middle of the plastic wrapper and topped with 1 teaspoon of caramelized coconut filling and fold into a rectangular shape.

5. Serve warm.
