Ingredients

  • 1 cup Rice
  • 2 cup Water

Instructions

  • Rinse rice thoroughly. Add water to rice along with a pinch of salt and a knotted pandan leaf. Cook over high heat. Once it starts to boil, reduce heat to the lowest. Let it simmers for 5 minutes.
  • Once the rice is cooked, use a fork or a potato masher to mash the rice until the grains are no longer obvious.
  • Fluff rice and allow it to cook for another 10 minutes. If it is still uncooked, add some water and mix well. Cook for another 5 to 10 minutes. Once rice is fully cooked, cover the pot and remove from stove.
  • Shape and compress the rice in a square or rectangular pan using cling wrap. Refrigerate or leave at room temperature.
