1
Start by rinsing the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This will help get rid of excess starch and prevent the rice from sticking.
2
Place the rinsed rice into a large pan. This is important as the volume of the rice will double while cooking. Pour in the water and start cooking on medium heat.
3
Keep an eye on the pan, and stir occasionally. As the water begins to evaporate, lower the heat. Continue cooking until the rice is fully cooked and soft.
4
Add the thick coconut milk and salt into the pan. Stir well to ensure the rice is completely covered in coconut milk.
MOLDING AND SERVING KIRIBATH
5
Let the rice stew on low heat for 10 minutes, or until it reaches a creamy, porridge-like consistency.
6
Once cooked, remove the pan from the heat and let it cool down for about 3 minutes.
7
Meanwhile, grease a cake baking tin with a touch of coconut oil. Transfer the cooked rice into the tin, spreading and pressing it evenly to mold it to the shape of the tin.
8
Let the rice cool completely. Then, invert the baking tin onto a plate, allowing the molded Kiribath to slide out gently.
9
If you prefer, you can also just cut the Kiribath directly in the baking dish into squares or diamond shapes, making it easier to serve.
