Black Bean Sticky Rice

Method

1. 1 Soak the black beans for 8 hours until they swell, then boil them until soft but still intact.
2. 2 Soak the glutinous rice for 6 hours, drain it, and then mix it with the boiled black beans.
3. 3 Add a pinch of salt and steam the sticky rice for 30 minutes.
4. 4 Stir the rice midway through to allow the steam to escape evenly and prevent the grains from becoming mushy.
5. 5 Mix the grated coconut, sprinkle with roasted sesame seeds, and serve hot.
