Ingredients
For the sticky rice:
- 1 cup glutinous (sweet) rice
- 1 ¼ cup coconut milk
- ¼ cup sugar
- ¼ tsp salt
For the coconut sauce:
- ½ cup coconut milk
- 1 tbsp sugar
- Pinch of salt
- 1 tsp cornstarch mixed with 1 tbsp water (optional, for thickening)
Toppings:
- 2 ripe mangoes, sliced
- Toasted sesame seeds
Instructions
- Soak and cook the sticky rice: Rinse the rice until water runs clear. Soak in water for at least 4 hours or overnight. Steam the rice for 25–30 minutes until tender. (You can also use a steamer basket lined with cheesecloth.)
- Make the coconut rice mixture: In a saucepan, heat 1 ¼ cup coconut milk with sugar and salt. Stir until dissolved. Don’t boil. Pour this over the cooked hot rice. Mix gently, cover, and let sit for 20–30 minutes to absorb.
- Make the coconut sauce: In a small saucepan, heat ½ cup coconut milk with sugar and salt. Add cornstarch slurry if using. Simmer until slightly thickened.
- Assemble: Serve a scoop of sticky rice with mango slices. Drizzle with coconut sauce and top with sesame seeds and fresh mint if desired. Enjoy!
