Method
- Whisk rice flour, all-purpose flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt.
- In another bowl, beat coconut milk, eggs, and melted butter.
- Combine wet and dry ingredients into a smooth batter.
- Rest for 10 minutes while the steamer heats.
- Pour into lined molds and top with cheese.
- Steam until domed and set. Check the thickest piece with a skewer; the centre must be set rather than gummy or floury.
- Cool slightly before unmolding.
