Instructions
- Soak the black glutinous rice in water for at least 4 hours, or overnight. Drain.
- Add the soaked glutinous rice into a pot and cover with water.
- Add in pandan leaf and sugar.
- Cover with a lid, and bring the rice to a boil over medium heat.
- Prop the lid ajar slightly and reduce to a simmer.
- Cook for 1 hour, or until the rice grains are tender. Check intermittently to see whether more water needs to be added.
- Remove the lid and discard pandan leaf.
- If there is too much water left, increase the heat to evaporate it.
- Add in 2 tablespoon of coconut milk, cooked black beans (if using), and stir until incorporated.
- The consistency should be like a rice pudding, thick and creamy.
- Serve warm or chilled with additional coconut milk (or thickened coconut milk).
Thickened coconut milk:
- In a small saucepan, combine coconut milk, sugar, and salt and heat over medium heat.
- In a small bowl, combine cold water and cornstarch and stir to make a slurry.
- Bring the coconut milk mixture up to a boil and add in the cornstarch slurry, stirring until thickened.
