Wash and drain the malagkit three times. Add the water and bring to a boil. Simmer until most of the water has been absorbed and the rice is done. Set aside.

If using fresh coconuts, grate them. Add a little hot water, and then squeeze the milk out by hand. Strain and set aside.

In a heavy-bottomed pot, combine the coconut milk, sugar, salt and anise seeds. Mix well and boil until the mixture thickens. Lower heat and add the cooked rnaiagkit.

Blend well by stirring continuously until the mixture thickens and ¡s difficult to handle, about 30 minutes.

Remove from the fire and spread out on a tray or platter so that the biko conforms to the shape of the container.

Cut into squares and serve on a small plate or banana leaf.
