BLACK GLUTINOUS RICE DESSERT

Black glutinous rice dessert is a common Asian dessert. It is also classified as tong sui, a type of sweet soup. Normally, it takes about an hour to cook black glutinous rice soft. In order to speed up the cooking process, I used instant pot pressure cooker to make this tasty and simple black glutinous rice dessert.

Instructions

Instant pot method:

  1. Wash 1.5 cups of the black glutinous rice. Put it into the instant pot, then pour 6 cups of water. Close the lid and vent, press the manual button to adjust time for 20 minutes at high pressure and natural release.
  2. While cooking the black sticky rice, pour 4 cups of water into a pot and turn on a high fire. When the water is boiling, put ½ cup of sago (small tapioca).
  3. Let it boil for 5-10 minutes. After that, turn off the heat and cover the lid for 10 minutes.
  4. Next, use a strainer to drain the sago and rinse in cold water.
  5. When the black glutinous rice is done, add 1 cup of sugar (add to your sweetness), 1 can of coconut milk (13.5 fl oz or 400ml), and the cooked sago from step 4. Mix it well.

Stove top method:

  1. Wash 1.5 cups of black glutinous rice, then pour 8 cups of water into the pot. Turn on a high fire. When the water boils, turn the fire to small. Let it simmer for an hour or so. (If you want to shorten the cooking time, soaking the rice 2 hours before cooking will help.) 
  2. While cooking the black sticky rice, pour 4 cups of water in a pot . Turn on high fire until water boils.
  3. When water is boiling, pour ½ cup of sago into the pot and let it boil for 5-10 minutes. After that, turn off the heat and cover the lid for 10 minutes.
  4. Next, use a strainer to drain the sago and rinse in cold water.
  5. When the black glutinous rice is done, add 1 cup of sugar (add to your sweetness), 1 can of coconut milk (13.5 fl oz or 400ml), and the cooked sago from step 4. Mix it well.

Notes

  • Wash black sticky rice and cook them in a pressure cooker for 20 minutes at high pressure and natural release.
  • If you use stove top method, add 8 cups of water instead of 6 cups.
  • Cooking sago is pretty challenging because it’s small and most people don’t know how to cook it. The best way to cook sago is to boil them for 5-10 minutes. Then, turn off the heat and cover the lid for 10 minutes, so the inside of the sago can cook through. After that, use a strain to drain sago and rinse with cold water. If you over cooked the sago, it will be mushy.
  • Add coconut milk and sugar with cooked rice. Then, add the sago and mix it well.
