Sticky Rice Rolls served with Palm Sugar Syrup (Lupis)

Ingredients

• 200 gr. glutinous rice flour
• 1 Tbs. slaked lime water
• banana leaves
• ¼ grated coconut
• pinch of salt
• Palm sugar syrup

Directions

Soak the glutinuous rice in water for an hour and drain. Add the slaked lime water to make the rice rolls more solid, and stir.

Take a piece of banana leaf and fill it ¾ full with glutinuous rice (just like making rice rolls). Secure the ends and tie rolls with string so that they will not burst during the boiling.

Put the rolls in a saucepan and cover with water. Boil for 4 hours, drain and allow the rolls to cool. Add more hot water during the cooking when necessary.

Serve the rolls by cutting it into 2 cm thick slices.

Sprinkle the grated coconut which a pinch of salt has been added on top of the rolls and pour the palm sugar syrup over them.
