Equipment
- 1 large saucepan or wok
- 1 Large pot
Ingredients
- 1 kg glutinous rice
- 1.5 liters coconut milk
- 100 g ginger thinly sliced
- 3 cups water
- ¼ kg white sugar
- 2 tbsp salt
Instructions
- Rinse the rice until water is clear and then set aside.
- In a large saucepan or large wok, add the coconut milk and ginger and bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce to a simmer. Stir continuously until milk solids separate from the coconut milk.
- Next, add water, sugar, and salt. Then, bring to a quick boil and reduce to a simmer for 3 minutes.
- Add the rice and continue mixing on low heat until the water has been absorbed, about 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to slightly cool.
- Measure out about 80 grams of the rice mixture, place it on the banana leaf, and roll it into logs. Roll banana leaves tightly around the rice to form a log, and fold both edges to seal. Repeat the steps until all the rice mixture is prepared.
- In a large pot, arrange all the folded suman and add 1.5 liters of water. Bring it to a boil and reduce to a simmer for 45 minutes.
- Carefully remove the suman and allow it to cool.
