👨🍳 步驟
- 1
Prepare the blue rice water: Steep the dried butterfly pea flowers in 600ml of hot water for about 10-15 minutes, or until the water turns a deep blue. Strain out the flowers and set the blue water aside.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Cook the rice: Combine the rinsed jasmine rice with the blue butterfly pea water in a rice cooker or pot. Add a pinch of salt. Cook according to your rice cooker's instructions, or bring to a boil on the stovetop, then reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender. Let it steam, covered, for another 5 minutes off the heat.
⏱️ 25 minutes - 3
Prepare the herb salad: While the rice is cooking, finely chop all the fresh herbs (kesum, mint, Thai basil, etc.). In a medium bowl, combine the chopped herbs with the minced shallots. Season with salt and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Mix well and set aside.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 4
Prepare accompaniments: Arrange the keropok, budu, optional fried coconut flakes, sliced salted egg, and julienned cucumber on a serving platter. These are typically served on the side for diners to add to their rice.
⏱️ 10 minutes - 5
Assemble and serve: Fluff the cooked blue rice with a fork. Serve a generous portion of the blue rice in each bowl. Top with a good amount of the prepared herb salad. Drizzle with budu and serve with the keropok and other accompaniments on the side. Diners can then mix everything together to their preference.
