Time: 20-30 minutes
Ingredients
1 ¾ cups glutinous rice flour
¾ to 1 cup coconut milk
1 tbsp Elufa Ube Flavorplus
for Toppings
grated coconut
grated cheese (optional)
soften butter
brown sugar
condensed milk (optional)
Directions
Place glutinous rice and Elufa Ube Flavorplus in a bowl then gradually add coconut milk until you form a dough. Dough should be not too wet nor too dry
Place inside the refrigerator and chill for a minimum of 30 minutes. While dough is chilling, cut a 5 pcs. of foil measuring approx. 8 x 4 inches. Then brush with butter to avoid sticking. When chilled, grate the dough by using a cheese grater to make into grain-like pieces. Scoop about 3 tbsp of the grated dough and place it in the middle of the foil.
Seal the foil making sure the grated dough inside is packed tightly and is in a tube shape. Finish all of the dough repeating the process.
Arrange them in a steamer and steam for 10 minutes at medium heat. Remove from steamer and take out from foil. Place the contents over a piece of banana leaf. Spread butter all over and then top with freshly grated coconut and muscovado sugar.
