Bánh giày (round sticky rice cake)

Instructions

1. Drain the glutinous rice after 4 hours of soaking, then rinse it under clear water until the water runs clear.
2. Mix the rice with the water and salt in a saucepan, then bring to the boil over medium heat.
3. Cover, lower the heat to the minimum and cook for 25 minutes without lifting the lid until the water is absorbed.
4. Leave to cool for 10 minutes, then oil your hands lightly and shape the rice into even discs.
5. Place the discs on a banana leaf or oiled baking paper and rest for 20 minutes so they firm up.
6. Serve the bánh giày with the dried pork and chilli sauce.
