The Final Product!
My mother often makes Rice Flour Layer Cake for me when I visit her as it is one of my favorite dishes. The recipe is as follows:

Rice Flour Mixture:
1 bag rice flour (400 grams)
1 can coconut milk (398 ml)
1 3/4 cans of water (using the coconut milk can)
3 tbsp. tapioca flour
salt to taste
Mix together with a whisk

Ground Pork Mixture:
3/4 pound of ground pork
1 1/2 cups minced mouse ear mushrooms
2 tsp. salt
2 tsp. sugar
1 tbsp. black pepper
1/4 cup of minced shallots
2 stalks chopped green onion
Cook these ingredients together in a pan

1. Mix the two mixtures together
2. Make sure the mixture runs off of the ladle easily to ensure mixture is not too thick
3. Place a pan used for steaming into the steamer
4. Scoop the a 1/4" layer of the mixture into the pan
5. Steam it covered on high heat for approximately 8-10 minutes (this will vary depending on the thickness of the pan you use)
6. Repeat steps 4 & 5 until the pan is almost full

Be sure to steam the first and last layers for 2 extra minutes.
You make need more than one pan depending on the size of pan you use.
