NTO - Banh tet with banana filling

Ingredients: 1 kg glutinous rice; 500g red beans or black beans as desired; 100ml coconut milk; 12 ripe bananas; 5g bamboo strips for wrapping the cake; 2 teaspoons salt; 3 tablespoons sugar; 1 tablespoon wine; 3 pandan leaves; 8 banana leaves.

* How to do:

Wash the sticky rice about 4-5 times until the water is clear. Soak the sticky rice in a bowl for 5-6 hours. Then take it out and drain.

Ripe bananas, peel. Add a little salt, sugar and wine to the bananas. Red beans (can choose black beans), wash, remove worms and dirt, cook.

Cook sticky rice with pandan leaves: Wash pandan leaves, put in blender, puree, drain to get the juice.

Take a large pan, add sticky rice and beans and stir-fry. While stir-frying, add coconut milk and pandan water, mix well. Stir-fry for about 15 minutes, then add coconut milk again, stir well and turn off the heat.

Wash the banana leaves and dry them in the sun until they are slightly wilted. Then arrange the banana leaves like traditional banh tet wrappers.

Wrap and steam the cake: Spread the sticky rice and beans on banana leaves, place the banana filling in the middle of the sticky rice. Wrap the cake like traditional cake. Put the cake in a large pot, boil for about 4 to 5 hours until the cake is cooked.
