Biko

There are different versions of Biko. A friend of mine cooks Biko without coconut milk while I grew up with coconut milk and cream in it. When my parents were here a few months ago, I was craving for the biko that I used to eat when I was young so I asked Mum to cook it for me. While watching her cook, I found out it was actually pretty simple. 

"Mum puts anise seeds around 1/4 tsp in the heated pan. Once you can smell the aroma of the seeds add coconut milk (I can't remember how much) and let it boil. Add brown sugar until you get the sweetness you want and stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the cooked glutinous rice (we cooked it an hour ago). Keep stirring until the rice absorbs the liquid and it becomes very sticky."
