Recipe
1
Wash and soak the sticky rice for at least 30 minutes, then steam it until soft and set aside.
2
In a deep pot, combine the sliced fermented bamboo shoot, diced green papaya, and chopped banana flower.
3
Add the berma (fermented fish), crushed garlic, green chilies, and water to the pot.
4
Bring the mixture to a boil over medium heat, then cover and simmer until the vegetables are tender and the flavors meld.
5
Mash the ingredients lightly with a wooden spatula to create a thick, stew-like consistency.
6
Season with salt, ensuring the fermented fish imparts its natural saltiness first, and mix well.

Serve the hot Gudok immediately alongside the warm sticky rice.
