Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch for perfectly sticky rice.
In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, water, sugar, and salt. Stir well and bring to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover with a lid, and let it simmer for 20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.
While the rice cooks, make the passion fruit curd. In a medium heatproof bowl, whisk together the passion fruit pulp, egg yolks, sugar, and cornstarch until smooth.
Place the bowl over a saucepan of simmering water (double-boiler method) and whisk continuously until the mixture thickens, about 8β10 minutes.
Remove the curd from heat and whisk in the butter until smooth and silky. Let it cool slightly.
Peel and dice the mango into small cubes for garnish.
To assemble, spoon the warm coconut sticky rice into bowls. Add a generous layer of passion fruit curd on top.
Drizzle with honey and garnish with diced mango and fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor.
Serve immediately while it's warm and enjoy the steamy, tropical flavors of Steamy Passion!
