1. Wash the rice and cook it in boiling water until it is just undercooked. Drain and set
aside.
2. Add all the other ingredients to the hand blender beaker and puree until it is a
smooth, fragrant paste.
3. Put the rice into a plastic dish that is large enough to fit in a steamer. Pour the paste
over the top and then steam for approximately 10 to 15 minutes.
4. Alternatively you can gently heat the rice with the paste over a low heat in a
saucepan for about 5 to 10 minutes.
