 Ingredients:
3 cups glutinous rice powder
1 1/2 cup water
3/4 cup grated coconut
1/2 cup muscovado( or you can add according to your taste)
1/4 cup toasted sesame seeds

Procedure:
1. Mix the water and glutinous rice slowly,  until you form a dough.
2. Spoon a portion from the dough and form it into an oval shape.

3. In a pot boil a water, once boiling, drop some of the raw palitaw.
4. Put by batches the oval formed glutinous rice in the boiling water and wait until it floats, then remove from the water and drain.

5. Mix the muscovado, toasted sesame seeds and grated coconut then roll over the palitaw and serve it.
