Saffron Glutinous Rice (Pulut Saffron)

My friend JL who worked in Iran gave me boxes of high quality saffron which added to our special rice cooked for the recent Idh. I still have a small box which I used sparingly because of its precious quality. My hubby came up with the idea for Saffron Glutinous Rice to serve for our mini open house for the kids' friends in the recent weekend. The outcome is very vibrant color!

BAHASA MALAYSIA VERSION
Menu Pulut Saffron ni Along hidangkan semasa mini HROH baru2 ni. Ni idea hubby Along lah yg cadangkan Along buat Pulut Saffron sebab baru2 ni kawan Along yg bekerja di Iran kasi saffron tu sewaktu dia pulang bercuti di Malaysia. Warna kuning nya lebig gelap di bandingkan dgn warna kuning kunyit. Dari segi rasa pula ada sedikit kelainan sebab takda bau kunyit.
