Main Ingredients

Method

Preparation of Rice

  1. 1

    Rinse the Rice

    In a large bowl, rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps to remove excess starch.

  2. 2

    Cook the Rice

    In a rice cooker or pot, add the rinsed rice and 4 cups of water. Cook according to the rice cooker instructions or bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer, cover, and cook for about 15-20 minutes until the rice is tender and the water is absorbed.

Mixing Coconut Milk

  1. 3

    Combine Coconut Milk

    In a separate saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium-low heat until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm but not boiling.

  2. 4

    Mix with Rice

    Once the rice is cooked, pour the warm coconut milk mixture over the rice. Gently fold the mixture into the rice until well combined. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to absorb the flavors.

Serving

  1. 5

    Prepare Toppings

    In a small bowl, mix together the sesame seeds, grated coconut, and chopped nuts.

  2. 6

    Plate the Dish

    Scoop the coconut rice mixture into serving bowls. Top with the sesame seed mixture and fresh mango slices.

  3. 7

    Enjoy

    Serve warm and enjoy your delicious Mi Do Biến!
