Suman is a Filipino dish of sticky rice wrapped in banana or coconut leaves.
made with malagkit (sticky rice), coconut milk and sugar.
after the mass at the Grotto Church we usually go traight to stores just beside the church were you can find different types of kakanin's and pasalubong's
here's how to make suman:
1. Soak the glutinous rice in water for 2-3 hours.
2. After soaking, drain excess water from the glutinous rice then add lye water and stir thoroughly.
3. Prepare the banana leaves.
4. Scoop about 2 tbsps of the rice mixture and place it over the leaf (about 12 by 10 inches in size)
5. Fold the leaf to secure the rice mixture and tie with strips of banana leaf.
6. Arrange the suman in a cooking pot then pour in enough water. Boil for 1 hour or until cooked.
7. Serve with sugar or condensed milk.
