Q's Glutinous Rice Season

What can we cook with Glutinous Rice.  A lot of dishes that uses glutinous rice to prepare. To name a few Pulut Panggang, Pulut Tai, Seri Muka, Pulut Kunyit (like this photo) and so on.





For instant Full Moon Celebration, the Pulut Kunyit dish is Curry Chicken.
I want something difference so I prepare prawn sambal, dry minced chicken curry and fried ground nut to eat with the pulut kunyit.  Actually there are no specific side dish to go with it.
