Step:

  1. Mix all rice ingredients. Use a rice cooker to cook it. When cooking button is up, open the rice cooker lid and stir the rice well. Place the lid back and let the rice stay in the rice cooker for a while until its completely cooked.

  2. Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium high heat. Saut garlic and shallots until fragrant.

  3. Add green chili peppers and bird eye chili peppers. Mix well.

  4. Add sardines. Season with salt and sugar.

  5. Add stinky beans. Stir until the stinky beans half cooked. Remove from the heat. Set aside.

  6. Prepare 2 sheets banana leaves. Spread 1/8 part of rice out in an even layer on top of the banana leaves. Place 1/4 part of sardines mixture in the center of the rice. Add basil leaves to taste. Fold banana leaves over to encase tuna sauce completely in rice, and secure each end with a toothpick. Do the same thing with the rest of the rice.
