Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 cup Glutinous (sticky) rice
- 1.5 cups Coconut milk
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 2 whole Fresh mangoes
- 1 teaspoon Cornstarch
- 1 tablespoon Water
- 1 tablespoon Toasted sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water several times until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in cold water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
Drain the soaked rice and steam it in a rice steamer lined with cheesecloth or a muslin cloth. Steam for 20-25 minutes or until the grains are tender and translucent.
While the rice is steaming, prepare the coconut sauce. In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of coconut milk, 1/2 cup of sugar, and 1/2 teaspoon of salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is fully dissolved (avoid boiling). Remove from heat.
Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large mixing bowl and immediately pour 3/4 of the coconut sauce over the rice. Mix well to combine and let the rice rest for 15-20 minutes to absorb the sauce.
Peel the mangoes and slice them into thin, even pieces. Set aside.
To make the topping sauce, combine the remaining 1/2 cup of coconut milk, 1 teaspoon of cornstarch, and 1 tablespoon of water in a small saucepan. Cook over low heat, stirring continuously, until the sauce thickens slightly. Remove from heat and let cool.
To assemble the dessert, divide the sticky rice into individual servings and place it on plates. Add mango slices on the side and drizzle the thickened coconut sauce on top of the rice.
Optional: Sprinkle toasted sesame seeds over the dessert for added texture and flavor.
Serve immediately and enjoy this delicious Thai mango sticky rice dessert!
