This dessert is not unusual with Malay families in Singapore. Usually served at birthday parties or at a thanksgiving feast. My mom would make this dessert using the red color sugar but since I am unable to get any red color sugar here, I used the brown sugar. Many used the glutinous rice but others would use regular rice. The brown/red part is usually sweet and the white part is a little salty. My first time to make this delicious dessert. Wonderful.
Ingredients:
1 cup glutinous rice, washed
2 pandan leaves (screwpines), knotted
water
1/2 cup coconut milk (used 1 cup regular 2%milk)
salt to taste
brown sugar or gula melaka
sugar
In a pot, cover glutinous rice with enough water and milk. Add the pandan leaves and salt to taste. Let it boil under a medium heat. Stir often to avoid the rice from sticking on the bottom of the pot. Once the rice has soften, from 1/3 of the amount of rice. Set it aside. The remaining 2/3, add the brown sugar and stir well. Add the white sugar is not sweet enough.
To serve, scoop the brown glutinous rice first then drop a tablespoon of the white glutinous rice. Enjoy!

Natalia, if you cant get it leaves, you can use the extract. But if you really cant find any of it, you can skip using the pandan leaves.. its just for the fragrance. :)
