Sweet corn leaf cake
Overview
The rainy season is coming, and it is quite comfortable to cook a few corns warm and eat them in the slightly cool weather. When we buy corn, we always pull out a lot of corn leaves and throw them away. In fact, corn leaves are very good ingredients. The pancakes I made today are a bit like rice dumpling leaves. The cornmeal pancakes wrapped with corn leaves also have a different flavor. It is simple and easy to operate. It is also a good choice to eat whole grains every day!

Ingredients
Steps
-
First prepare fresh corn leaves, wash them and set aside
-
Take an appropriate amount of cornmeal and glutinous rice flour and add it according to the specific number of people eating it. The ratio of cornmeal and glutinous rice flour is about 1:0.3. If you like it a little glutinous, you can add more glutinous rice flour appropriately
-
Add water little by little and use chopsticks to mix it into snowflakes, and finally mix it into a slightly muddy state
-
This state is fine
-
Take a small piece of cornmeal and press it into a small cake and put in the corn leaves
-
Just fold it in half up and down. The bottom of the corn leaf is a bit hard, so it’s best to cut it off so it’s easier to fold
-
Place the folded side down in a steamer, bring to a boil over high heat, then turn to low heat and steam for about ten minutes to watch the leaves change color.
-
When it turns yellow, it means it is cooked. Eat it while it is hot. It will harden easily when it cools down
