做法
- 先做馅料:厚底锅中把椰丝、棕榈糖和盐合在一起,中小火翻炒 6 分钟——糖融化,椰丝吸糖浆,变成深棕色黏稠馅料。拌入小豆蔻粉。放凉。
- 干锅中小火炒粘米粉 4 分钟,期间不停搅拌,直到散发出隐约坚果香但颜色未变。
- 把炒好的米粉倒入耐热碗中加盐。一边倒沸水一边搅(先 350 毫升)。面团应当柔软、有韧性、略带黏性。趁热加油揉一下。
- 盖好醒 10 分钟使米粉充分吸水。
- 蒸锅水大火烧开。准备好小香蕉叶方块,把面团装入压模。
- 在每张香蕉叶上压出直径约 8 厘米的薄米线巢。中央放 1 大勺椰糖椰丝馅料。把米线巢像小可丽饼那样对折,轻压封口。每批蒸 4 至 6 个,每批 8 分钟。趁温热配茶上桌。

文化背景
拉瓦里亚是甜米线饼——巧妙地把做咸味早餐细米线饼的同种面团做成甜点。它是下午茶食物,寺庙节庆时小贩在摆,家庭则当节日早餐。kithul 棕榈糖与椰丝的组合馅料(称为 pol pani),也用于无数斯里兰卡甜点(kavum、halapa、kokis 等)中——同一种馅料在不同甜品里做出不同形态。拉瓦里亚被视为斯里兰卡甜点里最精致细腻的一种;加勒(Galle)的一家拉瓦里亚作坊几十年来一直供应汽车站旁的食摊。
