Making rice dumplings

It was a tedious job but easy way to eat.

Chop the leaves, cut the both tips of the bamboo leaves, boil  them.

Fillings are - Dried mushrooms to be soaked for a few hours and cut to small pieces.
Pork, onions fried.  Add in 5 spices, salt and pepper powder. (Some times, can add in dried prawns and
nuts.)

Glutinous rice to be soaked too for some 20 minutes.  And have them fried lightly and mixed well with 5 spices powder.

When wrapping up, fill the glutinous rice and the fillings.

Boil the water added with salt.

Then put in the rice dumplings under low fire for about 40 minutes and the rice dumplings are ready for serving.
