XII. (Suggested answer)
Sticky rice cooked in bamboo (com lam) is a Vietnamese rice dish found in the
northwest mountainous area and Central Highlands. Making sticky rice cooked in
bamboo is quite easy if you know the key steps. First, you need to soak the sticky rice
in water for at least 5 hours (it’s better to soak it overnight). Then rinse the rice and
drain it well. Next, carefully insert the rice into the bamboo and seal the open ends with
banana leaf pieces and bamboo string. Then char grill the bamboo rice for 30 minutes
on medium heat, turning every few minutes. When the rice is fully cooked, peel and
discard the burnt bamboo. Next, leave the rice until it is cool and cut it into pieces of
about 5 centimetres. Pinally, serve on its own with salt and pepper and sesame seeds
or have it with your meal.
