Ingredients

1 and ½ cup malagkit (glutinous rice)

water for soaking the rice

3 cups coconut milk

1 teaspoon salt

Instructions

In a bowl, soak malagkit in water for 30 minutes or until soft. Drain the water from the bowl. In a pot, boil the coconut milk with salt until about a cup has been evaporated. Put the malagkit in a pot of coconut milk turning often to avoid scorching until the rice has dried a bit and has softened. 

Cook the softened rice in moderate heat and add the sugar, turning often until cooked. Remove from fire and place in a bilao (bamboo tray) lined with banana leaves.Serve either hot or cold.
