Glutinous rice is wrapped in banana leaves and then pressure cooked or boiled to give you soft Kue Lupis or Kuih Lopis coated with grated coconut and melted palm sugar. Absolutely delicious. Perfect starter to "Buka Puasa" this Ramadan.
Lupis (sometimes lopis) is an Indonesian traditional sweet cake made of glutinous rice, banana leaves, coconut, and brown sugar sauce. Lupis is one of many glutinous rice desserts from Indonesia. Most Kue or Kuih are "vegan" as coconut milk and rice or tapioca flour are the main ingredients.
An Indonesian Vegan Pandan Kuih Lopis o Steam cake with Glutinous rice or known as "Kue" usually eaten with thick palm sugar syrup and with shredded coconut toppings. Often eaten at breakfast or as a side dish during the evening, lupis is often sold at traditional marketplaces throughout Indonesia and is a popular food found nationwide, but especially in middle and eastern Java as well as West Sumatra. Lupis is one of the top desserts that tourists who visit Purwokerto in Java seek.
The challenge with Kue Lopis is in the wrapping ie to perfect triangle and boiled it to perfection. Almost similar to Chinese Rice dumpling during the Dragon boat festival.
