الخطوات

Bring the coconut milk, water, turmeric, aromatics and salt to a simmer in a heavy pot.
Add the rice and stir over low heat until the liquid is absorbed, about 12 minutes.
💡 Stir this stage, unlike plain rice. Coconut milk sinks and scorches on the bottom if it is left alone, and burnt coconut carries through the whole pot.
Transfer to a steamer and steam 25 minutes, until the grains are separate and cooked through.
💡 Absorb then steam — two stages, not one. Cooking it through in the pot alone gives a sticky, heavy rice instead of a light one that holds a cone.
Pull out the lemongrass, galangal and leaves, and fluff with a fork.
Pack into a cone mould or a cone rolled from banana leaf, turn out, and ring with the side dishes.
Scatter fried shallots over the top and serve warm.

💡 نصائح

Shaped into a cone it becomes tumpeng, cut at the top by the guest of honour. The gold stands for prosperity, which is why it marks occasions.
Cold nasi kuning is fried the next morning with an egg. Nobody throws it away.
