THE RICE ROLL

Ingredients:

* 2 cup beef Or chicken filling
* two 14-inch squares of banana leaves

Instructions:

* Place half the rice in the center of a banana leaf, and flatten it out with your fingers into a 4"x6"' rectangle about ¼ inch thick. The rice is sticky, and the process will be easier if you cover your fingers with oil. Spread half the beef or chicken filling along the center of the rice rectangle from end to end. Then fold both sides of the foil toward each other, lengthwise pressing firmly into a roll about 2 inches in diameter. Seal the foil ends to make a firmly packed roll. Repeat with the remaining ingredients to make a second roll.
* The rice rolls can be served immediately or refrigerated for up to two days before serving. Remove the rolls from the leaf, and slice into 1-inch-thick pieces like a jelly roll. This dish should be eaten at room temperature.
