For the glutinous rice: Heat the steamer over high heat until hot and boiling.

How to assemble the lemper:
Divide the glutinous rice into 2 parts.
Note: Wear plastic gloves before you do this part!

Press half of the cooked warm glutinous rice into a 20x20 cm baking pan using the tip of a spoon (or you can use your fingers. Please make sure you wear plastic gloves so the rice won’t stick to your fingers). Really pack it down hard!

Let the ‘lemper’ cool down completely before cutting.
Use a plastic knife or a knife coated with plastic to cut the lemper.
