Simmer on medium heat until all water is absorbed. Turn heat on lowest setting and cook with lid closed for 10 minutes.
Prepare steamer.
Cut the banana leaves into 4 squares, wrap the cooked rice, roll it in a cylindrical form as compact as you can. Secure with a cling wrap. Steam for 15-20 minutes.
