Steps

Steps were generated from the video narration. Watch the video if unsure.

  1. Wash the rice thoroughly, then soak for at least 1 hour.
  2. Clean any sharp bits off the bamboo basket and wash it clean, then drain the soaked rice.
  3. Line the basket with several layers of banana leaf so it doesn't leak, leaving a long piece to cover the top.
  4. Fill the basket with rice, spreading it evenly into the corners until it's about three-quarters full.
  5. Close it by folding over the banana leaf (patch any leaks with more leaf), cover again with the remaining leaf, and tie tightly with string.
  6. Boil the wrapped rice basket in plenty of boiling water until fully submerged, add the pandan leaves, then cover the pot and cook until it starts hissing.
  7. Once hissing, time the cooking for 1 hour without opening the lid at all.
  8. Turn off the heat, then let it sit (still covered) until the steam is completely gone, about 30 minutes, so the rice cake finishes cooking through.
  9. Open the pot, remove the rice cake, and let it cool completely before opening the basket and taking it out.
