Ingredients
- 1 1/3 cups sticky purple rice
- 1 1/3 cups glutinous white rice malagkit
- 2/3 cup long grain purple rice
- 6 cups water for soaking the rice
- 3/4 cups Muscovado sugar
- 1 1/2 cups freshly grated coconut
- 1/2 cup softened butter
Instructions
- Combine all types of rice in a large mixing bowl. Pour water. Soak for 2 days.
- Drain the water by pouring the contents of the bowl into a large sieve.
- Put the soaked rice in a large food processor. Start to grind the rice until it becomes very fine. Note: It took me around 10 minutes to achieve this consistency.
- Fill your puto bumbong steamer with water halfway through. Apply heat and then let the water boil.
- Meanwhile, fill each bumbong (bamboo tube) with powdered rice. Note: Do not compress the rice so that steam can pass easily.
- Once the water starts to boil rapidly, arrange each bamboo tube on the steamer. Continue to cook until steam comes out of the tube.
- Remove the tube from the steamer. Arrange the contents over a piece of banana leaf. Spread butter all over and then top with freshly grated coconut and muscovado sugar.
- Serve. Share and enjoy!
