- I am doing an open-faced concept as shown in the photos. You can choose to wrap the rice and fillings up into pyramid-shaped dumplings if desired. I will include the steps for both concepts.*
- Open-faced concept: - - I am using an electric double-decker steamer. You can use 2 decks of bamboo steamers and steam in a wok over medium heat with water. You will need to do in batches if your bamboo steamers are small. - - Wipe the bamboo leaves clean with a kitchen towel.
- Lay bamboo leaves on the steamer. - - Lay some pandan leaves over the bamboo leaves. - - Spoon in the glutinous rice, white and blue separating from one another, over the top. - - Tied 2 knots of pandan leaves and place them on top of the rice. - - This is your bottom deck.
- Cover and steam for 40 mins. - - Spoon the chicken and mushroom over another deck of steamer. - - Spreading out evenly. - - Place this deck over the rice deck. - - Steam together for another 30 mins or until the rice is fully cooked.
- I did it this way so that the flavors of the chicken and mushrooms will infuse the rice and vice versa. I cook the rice 1st cos the rice takes longer time to cook.*
- Remove from heat and transfer onto serving plate. - - Garnish with scallions and serve immediately. - - If you want the same presentation as shown in the photos, place the white rice into a 4-inch pastry ring. Spoon the chicken and mushroom over the rice. Lastly, blue rice. Using the back of a spoon to compact at every layer. Garnish with some scallions.
- Wrapped concept: - - Clean and wipe the bamboo leaves with a kitchen towel. - - Bring a large heavy pot of water to a rolling boil. - - Take 2 bamboo leaves, one on top of the other, take the halfway point, fold and form it into a cone shape.
- Add a scoop of the white rice into the cone. - - Pack it down firmly. - - Add 2 spoonfuls of the chicken and mushrooms. - - Add a scoop of blue rice on top. - - Pack it down firmly.
- Fold the leaves down and form a pyramid shape. - - Tie the dumplings tightly with hemp strings. - - It takes a few practices until you get it right. Most importantly is to the tie the dumplings tightly.
- Repeat the process for the remaining dumplings. - - Add the dumplings into the boiling water. - - Cover and boil for about 2.5 hours.
- At the 2 hours mark, remove one of the dumplings, unwrap and test if it is cooked. - - If it is cooked, remove from heat, place in a wire cooling rack to drain off excess water and cool down. - - If it is not yet cooked, continue cooking for another hour and check again, - - When it is cool enuff to handle, unwrap and serve.
