Pulut Tai Tai
Blue Pea Flower gives this pretty Pulut Tai Tai (Pressed Glutinous Rice) its light blue shade, though you can leave it out if you can’t find it, as it’s mostly for the color. Nik Imran shows how you can whip this simple, creamy dessert that’s generously coated with a decadent, caramel-like kaya sauce. Cut the finished rice cake up into your desired shapes and drizzle homemade kaya over before serving.

Prepare the rice
- In a pot of about 400ml of simmering water, add blue pea flowers and steep until the water becomes a deep blue colour.
- Strain the blue water and set it aside. Drain water from glutinous rice and set aside. Line a square baking tray with a banana leaf, pour glutinous rice into tray.
- Add 100ml coconut milk to the rice bit by bit, stirring so the rice absorbs the coconut milk.Flatten the rice with a spoon or spatula.
- Tie the pandan leaves into a knot and place them on top of the rice. Steam the glutinous rice for 25 minutes.
- After 25 minutes, discard the pandan leaves, mix in 140ml of coconut milk, and steam for another 20 minutes. After 20 minutes, split the glutinous rice into 2 equal portions. Pour the blue water over half of the glutinous rice and mix.
- Flatten both trays of glutinous rice with a spoon or spatula, to ensure they are cooked evenly. Steam both trays for another 10 minutes. Combine both trays of glutinous rice, using a spoon or spatula to flatten the rice.
- To flatten the rice even more, use another tray of the same size to press the rice down. Set aside to cool for about 2 to 3 hours.
