Ingredients
    For the Sticky Rice:
  • 1 cup glutinous rice (sticky)
  • 1.5 cup water
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup sugar
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • For the Coconut Sauce:
  • 1/2 cup coconut milk
  • 1 tbsp sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp rice flour (or cornstarch)
  • For Serving:
  • 2 ripe mangoes (peeled and sliced)
  • 1 tbsp toasted sesame seeds (or mung beans, optional)
Instructions
    Prepare the Sticky Rice:
  1. Rinse the Rice: Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for at least 4 hours, preferably overnight.
  2. Cook the Rice: Drain the soaked rice. In a steamer, cook the rice for about 20-25 minutes until it is fully cooked and tender.
  3. Make the Coconut Mixture: While the rice is steaming, in a saucepan, combine 1 cup of coconut milk, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously until the sugar dissolves. Do not let it boil.
  4. Mix the Rice and Coconut Milk: Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Gradually add the coconut milk mixture to the rice while stirring gently. Let the rice absorb the coconut milk mixture for about 20 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  5. Prepare the Coconut Sauce:
  6. Make the Sauce: In a small saucepan, combine 1/2 cup of coconut milk, 1 tablespoon of sugar, and 1/4 teaspoon of salt. In a separate small bowl, dissolve 1 teaspoon of rice flour in a little bit of water to make a slurry. Add the slurry to the coconut milk mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously until the mixture thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let it cool.
  7. Assemble the Dessert:
  8. Plate the Dish: Serve a portion of the sticky rice on a plate. Arrange slices of ripe mango alongside the rice.
  9. Drizzle the Sauce: Drizzle some of the coconut sauce over the sticky rice.
  10. Garnish (Optional): Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds or mung beans on top for added texture and flavor.
  11. Your homemade Mango Sticky Rice is ready. ทานให้อร่อย!
