Mango and Sticky Rice

Mango and Sticky Rice

This traditional Thai dessert is made with sweet sticky rice, coconut milk, and fresh mango.

Ingredients

  • Sesame seeds (1 tablespoon)
  • Mango (2, peeled and sliced)
  • Salt (1/4 teaspoon)
  • Sugar (1/4 cup)
  • Coconut milk (1 can)
  • Sweet sticky rice (1 cup)

Instructions

  1. Rinse the sticky rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in cold water for at least 30 minutes, or up to 4 hours.
  2. Drain the rice and place it in a steamer basket lined with cheesecloth. Steam the rice over boiling water for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
  3. While the rice is steaming, heat the coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar has dissolved.
  4. When the rice is done, transfer it to a bowl and pour the coconut milk mixture over it. Stir to combine and let the rice sit for 10-15 minutes to absorb the liquid.
  5. To serve, divide the rice among four bowls and top with sliced mango. Sprinkle with sesame seeds.
