Voiceover. Set out a scale and the equipment for Savory sticky rice. Heat to steam over water at 212°F / 100°C and give it 5 minutes so the surface is actually hot.

Savory sticky rice is cooked in Street as its own plate, not as a copy of a restaurant menu. Steam the sticky rice and mung beans until they mash together at the edges, then top with scallion oil and a little cooked pork. Amounts are for 4 from foods this library can count.

If it goes wrong
Shot. Split screen is unnecessary. Show the finished, correct texture, then a hand points at the cue.

Keep the shot list and on-screen facts tied to this recipe.
