Method
Directions
Prepare the Sticky Rice
Rinse the sticky rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
Cook the Sticky Rice
Drain the soaked rice and place it in a steamer lined with cheesecloth. Steam over boiling water for about 25-30 minutes, or until the rice is tender and translucent.
Make the Coconut Sauce
In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat until the sugar dissolves, but do not let it boil.
Combine Rice and Coconut Sauce
Once the sticky rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Pour about 3/4 of the coconut sauce over the rice and gently mix to combine. Let it sit for about 15 minutes to absorb the flavors.
Prepare the Mango
Peel and slice the ripe mangoes into thin strips.
Serve
To serve, place a portion of the sticky rice on a plate, drizzle with the remaining coconut sauce, and top with mango slices. Garnish with sesame seeds or shredded coconut.
