Ginataang Bilo Bilo – Sticky Rice Balls in Coconut Milk Recipe & How to Cook Guide


INGREDIENTS:

2 cups glutinous rice flour
1 cup dried tapioca pearls (soaked in water for at least 4 hours)
4 cups coconut milk
1 cup water
1 cup brown sugar
4 ripe plantains (sliced)
1 large sweet potato sliced into small cubes
1 cup of sliced jack fruit

HOW TO COOK:

1. Mix the rice flour with 10 TBSP of water and form into small dough balls.

2. In batches, cook rice balls in boiling water for about 6-8 minutes or until they float to the top.

3. Set rice balls aside. *tip: When ready to mix this with the rest of the ingredients, just pick them up with clean wet hands. Otherwise they will stick to each other.

To cook the tapioca:

1. Strain the tapioca if you soaked them.

2. Drop them into the same pot where you cooked the rice balls and let it boil.

3. Simmer over medium heat for about 15-20 minutes until they are soft and translucent, strain then set aside. *tip: soak them in cold water when set aside so they don’t stick together.

To make the Ginataang Bilo Bilo:

1. Mix 3 cups of coconut milk and 1 cup water in a large saucepan/pot and bring to a boil.

2. Add sweet potatoes and cook for about 15 minutes under low heat.

3. Add tapioca (strain the water from the tapioca pearls if you followed my tip), brown sugar and rice balls into the pot, simmer for 10 minutes

4. Add plantains and sliced jack fruit, let it cook for 5 minutes or until tender.

5. Add remaining coconut milk, bring to a boil then remove from heat.
