Autumn returns with the fragrant scent of green rice drifting by. I love the green color of com, the color of the rice fields in my hometown! It's so refreshing and soothing! The chewy green rice blends with the aroma of pandan leaves, the rich taste of coconut and mung beans, and a hint of pomelo blossom water—just one bite and you'll remember it forever. For those far from home, this dish brings back the essence of Hanoi!

Steps

90 minutes
  1. 1

    Soak the mung beans in water for 4 hours until soft, then steam until cooked. Blend the beans with a little water and 2 tablespoons (30 g) sugar until smooth. Heat vegetable oil in a pan, add the mung bean mixture, and cook until the sugar dissolves. Add half of the glutinous rice flour and stir well. Cook until the mixture thickens and comes together, then add half of the sesame seeds and the shredded coconut. Stir in the pomelo blossom water, then remove from heat.

  2. 2

    Blend half of the water with the pandan leaves, then strain to get the pandan juice. Pour the pandan juice into a pan with the remaining water and 1/4 cup (50 g) sugar. Once the sugar dissolves, add the green rice flakes and cook over low heat. Add the glutinous rice flour. Stir constantly with chopsticks to prevent sticking. When the mixture becomes dry and the rice flakes are almost dissolved, taste to make sure it's chewy and there are no hard bits left. If the mixture dries out before the rice flakes are soft, add a little more water. If the mixture isn't smooth, use a hand blender to blend until smooth.

  3. 3

    Let the green rice mixture cool. Brush some vegetable oil on plastic wrap to prevent sticking. Use a silicone spatula and an oiled spoon to place a portion of the green rice mixture onto a piece of plastic wrap, then spread some mung bean filling evenly in the center. Wrap it up. Finally, sprinkle a little sesame seed on top of each cake.

  4. 4

    Result: The green rice cake is chewy, with a rich, fragrant, and mildly sweet mung bean filling! It's wonderful to enjoy with a cup of green tea and good company on a cool autumn day!

Hải phòng
Mình may mắn sinh ra ở Hải Phòng - nơi có nhiều món ăn rất ngon như bánh đa cua, bánh giò, bánh mỳ Patê, chè bệt, bánh bèo, bánh gối, sủi dìn, nem cua bể...Nấu ăn vốn ko phải sở trường của mình! Từ khi chuyển vào Nam- ko có những món ăn của Hải Phòng nên mình phải tự mày mò, học hỏi. Nấu nhiều thành quen, đâm ra yêu thích nấu ăn từ đây! Sở thích từ xưa của mình là thích bánh ngọt Pháp nhất là ăn ở hiệu bánh Môka - Ngày xưa ở Hoàng Văn Thụ giờ chuyển về Cát Dài! Mình thích mùi thơm của bánh toả ra khắp nhà thật thơm và ấm cúng! Thích cùng con trai nặn bánh, rán nem! Những khoảnh khắc đó sẽ lưu giữ lại trong ký ức của chúng về bếp ăn gia đình- thật thân thương. Lớn lên hơn nữa, khi xa nhà chúng sẽ nhớ mùi thơm của bơ, vani... Ngày mỗi ngày sẽ có những món mới ra đời giống như cuộc sống có nhiều màu sắc! Cám ơn các bạn đã ghé bếp mình và chúc cho bếp các bạn luôn đỏ lửa, nồng ấm và hạnh phúc bên gia đình yêu thương.
