Perfect for parties or family gatherings!

Here are the ingredients you need for the glutinous rice layer: glutinous rice, thick coconut milk, pandan leaves, salt, and blue butterfly pea flower.

Here are the ingredients you need for the durian custard layer: eggs, thick coconut milk, fine granulated sugar, fresh durian pulp, corn starch, plain flour, tapioca flour, and pandan leaves.

The first step is to prepare the glutinous rice layer. 

Boil 200ml of water in a small pot and add the blue butterfly pea flowers. Give it a good stir and let it simmer for five minutes with the lid on.

Next, separate the glutinous rice into two bowls: a small bowl containing 1/3 portion of the rice and a bigger bowl containing 2/3 portion of the rice. Pour the strained blue butterfly pea flower water into the small bowl until the rice is submerged.

Add enough water to fully submerge the white rice in the bigger bowl. Let the glutinous rice soak overnight or for a minimum of eight hours. #Tip: the long soaking time helps to get rice of the excess starch in the rice so that it will be softer after cooking.

All the actual cooking starts on the second day after the long soaking.

Place 2 folded pandan leaves into each bowl and mix well. Ensure that the pandan leaves are stuffed in between the rice grains so that the fragrance of the leaves will penetrate the rice.

Prepare a steamer and place the bowls into it. Steam the rice for 20 minutes then remove the bowls and set aside. #Tip: remove the pandan leaves and stir to fluff up the rice while still hot so they will be easier to press into the baking tin later.

The next step is to prepare the durian custard layer. 

Remove the durian flesh from the seed using a small knife to help remove. Then add the thick coconut milk and blend until smooth with a hand or normal blender.

To assemble the kueh, line a 7-inch square baking tin with baking paper. Add both glutinous rice and compress them flat with a back of a spoon. #Tip: mix the white and blue rice up in chunks so that the colours will show up better in your kueh.

Before adding the durian custard, we need to thicken it. Place the bowl of durian custard over a saucepan of boiling water. Add pandan leaves and whisk the durian custard until it has thickened. The temperature of the mixture should hover around 65 to 70 degrees when this happens. Remove and discard the pandan leaves.

Pour the durian custard over the rice layer and spread it out evenly with the back of a spoon. Set the baking tin in a steamer and steam on low flame for 30 minutes or until is has set.
