BIBINGKANG MALAGKIT RECIPE

Steps:

• In a pot combine glutinous rice and 6 cups of coconut milk and bring to a boil then reduce heat to low.

BIBINGKA RECIPE

Steps:

• Cut circles from the banana leaves for lining the pans. It should be double the size in diameter of the pans/molds or enough to cover the bottom and sides with a bit of excess as they tend to shrink when heated. Cut another batch of banana leaves for the top cover. Rinse and pat dry the banana leaves. Run each leaf quickly over the fire to make them limb and pliable.
• Line the pans/molds with banana leaves and brush them with butter. Set aside.
• Combine all the ingredients for the batter in a bowl and mix well with a spoon or whisk until mixture becomes smooth. The batter should normally be runny.
• Divide the mixture into the pans/molds. Be sure not to fill more than half of each pan/mold with the mixture as it will rise while baking. Add 2-3 slices of salted egg on each. Arrange them on the baking sheet and bake at 200°C/390°F in the middle rack for 10 minutes. Remove the sheet from the oven. Place prepared banana sheets brushed with butter on top of each pan/mold with the buttered part facing down. Put them back in the oven but this time on the top rack. If using a gas oven, turn on the top heat (grill/broil function). Bake for another 5 minutes or until nicely charred.
• Once done, remove from oven and brush each Bibingka with butter. Then top them with grated cheese and grated coconut. Serve while warm!

FILIPINO BIBINGKA RICE CAKE WITH COCONUT IN BANANA LEAVES

Steps:

• To make the galapong: Rinse the rice under cold running water, drain and place in a medium bowl with cold water to cover. Refrigerate overnight.The next day: Drain and rinse rice again. Drain in a colander. Transfer to a food processor and process until the mixture is finely grounded about 1 minute. Then work again to press the galapong through the sieve. You should have about 1 and 1/2 cups galapong. Discard any extra.
• To make the bibingka: Preheat the oven to 425 F degrees and prepare two 9-inch pie pans lined with parchment paper or banana leaves.
• In a large bowl, combine the flour, 1/4 cup sugar, baking powder and salt in a bowl. Add the galapong and mix well so that no more lumps remain. Stir in egg yolks, coconut milk, and regular milk.
• In the clean bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a whisk attachment, beat the egg whites till stiff. Fold the whites into the galapong mixture.
• Grease the banana leaves lining the pans with softened butter. Divide the mixture between the lined pans. Nestle each salted egg quarter into the middle of each cake. Sprinkle each cake with 2 tablespoons of the Gouda, and 2 tablespoons of the feta, and lastly the sugar.
• Set the cakes on the top rack of the oven and bake until firm and set, for about 20 minutes. It should be lightly browned on top. If the bibingkas are firm but not browned, preheat the broiler and broil them 6 inches from the heat source, watching it carefully till it is bubbly and light brown, in 3 minutes.
• Brush the bibingka with the melted butter while still warm. Let cool slightly and serve straight from the banana-leaf lined pans.
• Cook's Comments: To get the outdoor burnt banana leaves aroma, I put the entire rice cake, covered in banana leaves on the outdoor grill. The heat should be set to a medium high and the rice cakes are left for 10 minutes. Soon the fragrance of the banana leaves mixed with the coconut will fill the air.
