FAMOUS ABRABANG IN THE ISLAND REPUBLIC OF PALAU 🇵🇼

Soak sticky rice in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.

Drain the sticky rice and combine it with coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a mixing bowl.

Mix well until the sugar is dissolved and the rice is evenly coated.

Prepare banana leaves by softening them over heat and cutting them into squares.

Line a steaming tray with banana leaves, leaving some overhang to fold over the top later.

Place a layer of the sticky rice mixture in the tray, smoothing it out evenly.

Add a layer of sliced mango and jackfruit on top of the sticky rice.

Cover with another layer of the sticky rice mixture, pressing down gently.

Fold the banana leaves over the top to cover the mixture completely.

Steam the wrapped mixture over boiling water for about 45-60 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked.

Remove from the steamer and let it cool slightly before serving.

Slice into squares and sprinkle with sesame seeds before serving.
