BIKO - FILIPINO SWEET STICKY RICE RECIPE - (4.1/5)

Steps:

• Cooks Notes: You need to use sweet rice or sticky rice (sometimes called glutinous rice) for this recipe. Coconut cream is found in most Asian and ethnic stores but if you can't find it, just use the the thick cream from the top layer of a good quality can of coconut milk. Don't worry if you end up with less coconut milk to use with the rice-simply add enough water to reach the desired amount of cooking liquid. This recipe can easily be halved. If you like crunchy rice edges, cook the biko in muffin pans or brownie bar pans. Be careful when you pull it out of the oven; the caramelized brown sugar is very hot and can burn you if you try to taste it immediately. Pour coconut milk and about a cup of water into a pot and let it come to a simmer over medium heat. When simmering, add in the rice and stir constantly to prevent burning. Lower the heat if necessary. Preheat oven to 350°F. When rice is fully cooked, sticky and almost dry (it will look like sticky risotto), about 10 to 15 minutes, add 1 cup brown sugar. (Note: If rice is already sticky but not yet fully cooked, add small amounts of water, stir and continue cooking. Rice must be fully cooked before it goes into the oven.) Stir well and take off heat. Pour into a lightly buttered 9 ×13 pan and smooth the top. Mix the remaining 1 cup brown sugar and coconut cream until smooth and pour it over the rice. Bake for about 1 hour or up to 1 1/2 hours, until topping is dark brown and has thickened. Cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• Place glutinous rice in rice cooker pot and wash twice. Fully drain water.
• Add 2 ¼ cups water, cover and soak for 4 hours.
• After soaking, turn on rice cooker.
• When rice is almost cook, in a pot or deep skillet, preferably non-stick, combine coconut milk, brown sugar and salt. Bring to a boil, then lower heat and simmer until reduced and thick.
• Add the cooked glutinous rice in the coconut milk/sugar mixture. Stir constantly until well blended. Keep stirring until coconut milk mixture is absorbed by rice and it forms into one sticky mixture about 30 minutes or so.
• If using banana leaves, run it in the stove to soften then lightly grease with latik oil otherwise grease pan.
• Use a pan or pyrex measuring 7 ½ x 5 ½ (biko - 2 inches thick) or small tray 9 ½ x 13 (biko - 1 inch thick). This is a small amount of serving, you need to double the recipe if you want more than 6 servings.
• Spread biko evenly and lightly grease the top with latik oil. Slice and top with latik. Enjoy
