Prep Time: 20 mins

Cook Time: 1 hour

Total Time: 1 hour 20 mins

Serves: 8

Ingredients

• 4 eggs
• 110 gram sugar
• 125 gram black glutinous rice powder (Indonesian: tepung beras ketan hitam)
• 110 ml canola oil
• Tools
• 1 rice cooker (mine is a basic 10 cup capacity rice cooker with teflon coating pot)

Instructions

1. Beat eggs and sugar in a mixing bowl until pale, thick, fluffy, and about triple in volume, about 5 minutes with electric beater, or 15 minutes if using hand.
2. Fold in the glutinous rice powder into the egg mixture until well combine, do not over mixed.
3. Pour the canola oil in the batter and mix well, do not over mixed.
4. Brush the rice cooker pot with some melted butter or some canola oil, this step helps the finished cake to unmold from the pot. Then pour the batter into the pot.
5. Place the rice cooker pot into the rice cooker and press the “cook” button. Once it turns to “warm”, wait for 10 minutes. Repeat the “cook” and “warm” process another 3 times for a total of 4 “cook” and “warm” cycles.
6. Open the rice cooker lid, and test if the cake is done by inserting a toothpick into the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, it is done. If not, repeat the “cook” and “warm” cycle again until the cake is done.
7. Remove the rice cooker pot, cover the pot with a plate wider than the pot opening, flip upside down and the cake should drop onto the plate.

Notes

• (*) If you don't have a rice cooker, you can pour this into an 18 cm round baking pan and steam for 30 minutes.
