Procedure

4. Remove the pandan leaves.
5. Pour the rest of the coconut milk over the rice.

Notes, tips, and variations

• Depending on the thickness of the coconut milk, 2 deciliters coconut milk and 2 deciliters water may also be used. Also, instead of 300 grams of rice, 350 grams may be used depending on the thickness of the milk, whether or not the rice has been soaked a longtime prior to frying, personal preference, etc.
