Pulut Hitam is one of the desserts I was introduced to while living in Singapore.
It’s a Malay dessert and once I tried it, I thought it tasted very much like our Payasam (kheer).

Pulut Hitam means black glutinous rice porridge.
Black glutinous rice is available in Chinese grocery stores and in supermarts.

In a hard bottomed vessel Add water and this rice and bring it to a boil without a lid, glutinous rice tends to becomes sticky so you need to cook it without a lid. Since it is cooked without a lid, it takes a longer time to cook. Once the rice comes to a boil, cook on a low flame (on sim). It takes about an hour.

Add palm sugar to taste and pinch of salt. Alternatively, you can cook this in a slow cooker for a couple of hours.
