Place 2 tablespoons of mung bean paste in a line down the middle of the rice rectangle.

Fold the banana leaf over the filling lengthwise, then fold in the sides to create a tight parcel.

Secure the parcel with kitchen twine, tying it firmly but not too tight to allow for expansion.

25
wrap the steamer and steam over medium bring to temperature for 90 mins, checking halfway to ensure the liquid hasn’t boiled parched—toss in more scalding liquid if needed.
