Every now and then I crave this type of Glutinous Rice dish, and eat it too much every time I cook it. It is my absolute favourite food. I usually cook it with Chicken, but today I used Pork. I definitely like slightly sweeter flavour for the Pork version and I added 1 teaspoon Sugar, but you may prefer less sweet flavour.
