Rice

Coconut Sauce

Method

Preparing the Rice

  1. 1

    Soak the Rice

    Rinse the glutinous rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rinsed rice in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.

  2. 2

    Steam the Rice

    Drain the soaked rice and place it in a steamer lined with cheesecloth or a clean kitchen towel. Steam the rice for about 20-25 minutes, or until tender.

Making the Coconut Sauce

  1. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    In a saucepan, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring until the sugar dissolves. Do not let it boil.

  2. 4

    Mix with Rice

    Once the rice is steamed, transfer it to a large bowl. Pour about 3/4 of the coconut sauce over the warm rice and mix well. Let it sit for about 10-15 minutes to absorb the sauce.

Preparing the Mango

  1. 5

    Slice the Mango

    Peel the ripe mangoes and cut them into thin slices or cubes.

Serving

  1. 6

    Plate the Dish

    To serve, place a portion of the sticky rice on a plate, arrange the mango slices next to it, and drizzle the remaining coconut sauce over the top. Sprinkle with sesame seeds or mung beans if desired.
