Glutinous Rice with Sambal (sandwich)

I love to eat glutinous rice with Sambal especially the one wrap and grill with banana leaf, oh so yummy! I missed it so much since we moved to United States, it hardly can or even can't find something like this in my living place. So I guess I have to learn how to make it.

This recipe is from a recipe book I bought from Malaysia long time ago and didn't have much time to flip on it. The results of this sandwich I made wouldn't be so perfect but it was good as I enjoyed it very much..!

Ingredients (A)

500g glutinous rice, cleaned and soaked with 1 tsp of turmeric powder for overnight then drained.
100ml coconut milk, 1tbsp sugar & 1/2 tsp salt.

Filling (B)

5 shallots, peeled and thinly sliced
2 pips garlic
100g dried shrimps, soaked
2 dried chilies, soaked
1 stalk lemon grass, chopped
(put all the filling ingredients above into food processor)

Seasoning (C)

1 tsp of sugar
1 tsp of salt
1 tbsp curry powder

Method :

Steam (A) without coconut milk, sugar & salt for 20mins then only mix the coconut milk, sugar, salt & a little bit of water I suggested for another 30 mins. Remove it from the heat

Heat up 1 tbsp of oil, sauté all the filling ingredients until aromatic then add in the seasoning and stir fry until all combined.

Press half of the hot glutinous rice into 9" square pan, spread the fillings on top of the rice then press the other half of the glutinous rice on the Sambal and then cut into pieces and serve.
