Serves 4

Ingredients

Sticky rice
1 cup
Ripe mangoes
2, peeled and sliced
Coconut milk
1 cup
Sugar
1/3 cup
Salt
1/4 teaspoon
Fresh mint leaves
for garnish
Sesame seeds
for garnish

Instructions

  1. Rinse the sticky rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
  2. Drain the soaked rice and place it in a steamer basket lined with cheesecloth. Steam the rice over high heat for 20 minutes, or until it is tender and cooked through.
  3. While the rice is steaming, prepare the coconut sauce. In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar is fully dissolved and the mixture is heated through. Remove from heat and set aside.
  4. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a bowl and pour half of the coconut sauce over it. Mix well to coat the rice with the sauce.
  5. To serve, place a portion of the sticky rice on a plate. Arrange the sliced mangoes on top of the rice. Drizzle with the remaining coconut sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds.
  6. Garnish with fresh mint leaves for a pop of color and flavor. Serve warm or at room temperature.

Tips

  • 💡 For added flavor, you can infuse the coconut milk with a few pandan leaves while heating.
  • 💡 If you prefer a thicker coconut sauce, simply reduce the coconut milk over low heat before mixing it with sugar and salt.
  • 💡 Feel free to experiment with different fruits, such as berries or kiwi, for a twist on this classic dessert.
