Purple Sticky Rice

Step 1

In a big bowl soak the white sticky rice in hot water. In a medium pot, boil 3 cups of water with the black sticky rice for 30 minutes. Stir every 5-10 minutes. After 30 minutes, pour the black sticky rice with the white sticky rice. Stir well and let it sit for 15-20 minutes.

Step 2

Put the steamer pot on the stove and bring it to a boil. Drain and pour the sticky rice into a steamer basket. Put the basket on top of the steamer and steam for 30 minutes. Stir and let it steam for 15 minutes. Pour 1 cup of water over the rice and stir again. Steam it again until soft.

Step 3

To make regular white sticky rice, you can soak the sticky rice overnight or a couple of hours before. Then steam the rice following my direction above. Enjoy!
