Pandan leaves, also known as pandanus or screw pine leaves, are used to wrap and flavour food. They are available in Asian grocery stores. Tying the leaf in a knot will make it easier to handle, but will also break the leaf and release the flavour. The coconut is soothing for the palate and this rice is ideal for serving with spicy Malaysian and Indonesian food.
