Brilio.net - Sticky rice is known as a traditional Betawi dish. This food is usually eaten as a snack. Apart from eating it just like that, it is not uncommon for people to also eat sticky rice with black sticky rice tape or oncom chili sauce. Usually this snack is often found on special days, such as the month of Ramadan, Eid or various celebrations.
Uli ketan is made from sticky rice cooked with grated coconut. Because it is cooked with grated coconut, this snack is known to not last long and must be finished immediately after the sticky rice is served.
Most people try to make sure that sticky rice sticks last longer, they don't cook it with a mixture of coconut and replace it with other ingredients.
Although not really, cooking sticky rice with grated coconut can last a long time as long as you know the tricks for processing it. The experience of making long-lasting sticky rice was shared by YouTube account user Ani Kurniasih. After all, this trick for making sticky rice can make it stay chewy and doesn't go stale for up to 3 days.
The first thing to prepare is sticky rice. Wash the sticky rice and soak it in water for approximately 5 hours. After soaking, prepare a steamer pan and heat it over medium heat. When the water in the steamer boils, then place the soaked sticky rice.
Cover the pan, then steam for 30 minutes. You can also add a few pandan leaves to this steamed sticky rice to make it more fragrant.

After steaming, transfer the sticky rice to a bowl, then mix with the grated coconut. Well, one of the keys to ensuring that processed sticky rice can last a long time is that the grated coconut used must be old, not young coconut. Stir until smooth, add salt to taste, then stir again.
"Sprinkle the salt little by little, gradually so that it is evenly mixed," emphasized YouTube account owner Ani Kurniasih, quoted by BrilioFood on Tuesday (26/3).

After the sticky rice and coconut are mixed evenly, cook it again in the same way, namely steaming. YouTube account owner Ani Kurniasih explained that she put a piece of banana leaf under her sticky rice. Apart from keeping the sticky rice from falling from the nest, the banana leaf also adds a fragrant aroma to the sticky rice.
This second steaming process is carried out for 1 hour. Yup, it does take longer, here's a trick so that sticky rice sticks stay supple and don't go stale for up to 3 days. The reason is, if it is not steamed for a long time, there is a risk that the grated coconut mixed with the sticky rice will not be completely cooked, so it will quickly go stale when served later.

After steaming, lift and transfer the sticky rice balls back into the bowl. While it's still hot, mash the sticky rice balls so that the result is chewy and mixed perfectly with the grated coconut. Once the dough is formed, the sticky rice can be cut into pieces and wrapped in coconut leaves according to taste.
"This texture is soft, supple, sticky and not soft. It can last 3 days at room temperature, it is still soft and not stale," said YouTube account owner Ani Kurniasih.
