Instructions

  1. Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then soak it for 30 minutes.
  2. Drain the rice, put it in a pot with the water and the pandan leaf, then cook over medium-low heat for 20 minutes, stirring regularly.
  3. Meanwhile, blend the durian flesh with 100 ml of coconut milk until smooth.
  4. When the rice is tender and most of the water has evaporated, remove the pandan leaf and add the sugar and salt.
  5. Stir in the durian purée and the remaining coconut milk, then stir for 10 minutes over low heat until creamy.
  6. Serve warm or cold, sprinkled with sesame seeds if you like.
