Instructions
Soak the glutinous rice for at least 4 hours. Steam the rice with a pinch of turmeric until tender and glossy.
Steam the mung beans until soft, then mash them into a smooth, thick paste.
Poach the chicken breast cubes gently in a light ginger-infused water until just opaque and tender; drain well.
In a small pan, simmer finely chopped pineapple until it reduces into a sticky, golden glaze; toss the chicken in this glaze to coat.
Assemble by placing a mound of warm, yellow rice on a plate. Spread a generous layer of the warm mung bean paste over the rice.
Top with the glazed chicken, a drizzle of fresh scallion oil, and a shower of crispy fried shallots. The dish should be aromatic, combining the savory depth of mung bean with the bright, sweet-tart finish of the pineapple-glazed chicken.
