Step 1
Soak the 1 cup sticky rice in water for at least 30 minutes, then drain well.
Step 2
Mix the drained rice with 0.5 cup coconut milk, 2 tbsp sugar, and 0.25 tsp salt in a bowl.
Step 3
Cut the 2 bananas into halves lengthwise, then each half crosswise to make 8 pieces.
Step 4
Place a banana piece on a pandan leaf, top with about 2 tbsp of the rice mixture, and wrap tightly, folding the ends under.
Step 5
Steam the wrapped cakes over boiling water until the rice is tender and translucent, about 25-30 minutes.
Step 6
Let cool slightly before unwrapping and serving warm.
