Very yummy warm with chilled slices of mango on top! Worth a try. It’s so good I took a spoon and ate it straight out of the fridge the next day.

The first time I made this my rice did not get done. It was a little too al dente but the flavor was great. One suggestion, try soaking your rice in hot water for 1 hour before cooking. I don’t think the rice continues to soften in the oven so make sure it’s done to your liking on the stove top.

I reduced the sugar by half and it was still very sweet. I used brown sweet short grain rice and it worked well.

I’ve been looking for a good biko recipe. The one I have doesn’t work well. Do you use long grain or short grain sweet rice? The filipino store near me sells both. I’m planning to have a Filipno food feast for my birthday in a few weeks, and I might have to try out this recipe and see if it works for me.
