Ingredients
- 1 cup coconut cream
- 4 cups glutinous rice
- 3 cups water
- 3 cans coconut milk
- 1 cup ube halaya
- ¾ cup sugar
- ½ teaspoon salt
- 4 drops ube extract
Instructions
- In a pan over medium heat, add the coconut cream and bring to a boil. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until liquid starts to thicken.
- Lower heat and simmer. As the oil starts to separate and solids begin to form, regularly stir and scrape sides and bottom of the pan to prevent from burning.
- Continue to cook and stir until curds turn golden brown. Using a fine-mesh sieve or colander, drain latik. Reserve oil.
- Grease bottom and sides of a 9 x 13 x 1 baking pan with coconut oil. Set aside.
- Wash the glutinous rice a few times until water runs almost clear. Drain well.
- In a rice cooker, combine rice and water and cook until liquid is absorbed. Allow to cool to touch and fluff with a fork to separate grains.
- In a wide non-stick skillet, combine coconut milk, ube halaya, sugar, and salt. Stir until well-blended.
- Over medium heat, bring to a boil. Lower heat and continue to cook until slightly reduced and thickened.
- Add ube extract and stir to distribute.
- Add rice, gently stirring to evenly distribute.
- Cook, stirring occasionally, for about 1 hour or until mixture is very thick, sticky, and pulls away from the sides of the pan.
- Spoon the biko into the prepared baking dish and pat down with a lightly greased spatula to even out.
- Lightly brush the top with coconut oil, cut into portions, and top with latik.
Notes
- The recipe uses ube halaya which is already sweetened. If using cooked mashed ube, increase the amount of sugar to one cup.
