Method
Prepare Sticky Rice
Soak the Rice
In a large bowl, rinse 2 cups of glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
Steam the Rice
After soaking, drain the rice and place it in a steamer basket lined with cheesecloth. Steam for about 30-35 minutes until the rice is translucent and sticky.
Prepare Filling
Mix Filling Ingredients
In a mixing bowl, combine 1 cup shredded cooked chicken, 1 cup shredded carrots, and 0.5 cup chopped fresh cilantro. Add 3 tablespoons of soy sauce, 2 tablespoons of sesame oil, and the juice of 1 lime. Mix well and season with salt to taste.
Add Crunch
Fold in the 0.5 cup of crushed peanuts for added texture.
Assemble and Serve
Form the Sub
Once the sticky rice is ready, wet your hands and take a portion of the rice. Form it into an oval shape that can act as the base for your filling.
Add Filling
Place a generous helping of the filling mixture on top of the sticky rice base. Top it with thinly sliced cucumber.
Garnish
Sprinkle chili flakes on top to taste and serve with lime wedges on the side.
