This week I bring you to SIBU Town and to visit other Country,City or Town just visit this site MYWORLD-TUESDAY
Pulut panggang vendor in the kampong street.
The most important is this special rolled rice is best cooked over a good open charcoal fire.
Life as kampong boy in the 50's and 60's .One great love of my life was pulut panggang .Pulut panggang was a savoury glutinous rice rolled up in banana leaf and grilled over charcoal fire.Life in Sibu at that time the 60's was slow paced and most of us waited for vendors to come by our home.Some of them walked from house to house ,others cycled.I still remember a little Malay boy would come to the house to sell his pulut panggang in the afternoon carrying all the rolled rice in a little rottan basket covered with a little towel to keep the rice warm.Pulut panggang from SIBU town is always the best.
The right amount of coconut milk,the best of the pulut or glutinous rice is used and even the bananas leaves must be special.The most important is this special rolled rice is best cooked over a good open charcoal fire and without charcoal fire pulut panggang will not have the original flavour and taste.

In the Philippines we have a version of that rolled glutinous rice thing. I bet that as yummy as what we have.
Uncle Awang, I love pulut panggang. In Melaka, we usually call this rempah udang. They are usually made by Nyonya. And they are delicious!!
I hope I could taste the pulut panggang of Sibu too!
Wow! Thanks for the insight into your world. It looks wonderful!
Photo Cache is right, we have almost the same glutinous rice cooked the same way. A little variation in some places may be present but am sure, they're all delicious:)
Hmm!.. Delicious!, look at that red charcoal and brown coloured banana leaves. I can smell the aroma from the screen here. ;)
Wow! Pulut panggang. I have NOT eaten this for like more than hundred years! Hopefully when I go back I'll get some. That reminds me of my childhood.
Sounds delicious. It may be a stupid question, but do you eat the banana leaves too, or is that discarded?
pulut panggang is my favorite. I still buy them for breakfast if I visit the market once a while.
this makes me hungry...had this many times when i lived in california. one of the things i miss most is the diversity of food that california offered and of course not offered in rural virginia.
I can almost smell it. It looks wonderful. What a different life.
Wow! I would love to have a piece of that! I love glutinous rice cakes! As Photo cache and Marites wrote, we do have several versions of that in the Philippines. so I can almost taste it!
