📝 Ingredients:
- 🍚 1 cup glutinous (sticky) rice
- 🥥 1 cup canned coconut milk
- 🍬 ⅓ cup sugar
- 🧂 ¼ tsp salt
- 🥭 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced
- 🥥 Optional for topping: 2 tbsp extra coconut milk or coconut cream, sesame seeds or mung beans
👩🍳 Instructions:
1️⃣ Soak & Cook the Rice
Rinse the sticky rice thoroughly. Soak in water for 30 minutes if time allows (optional, but improves texture). Then steam in a rice cooker or steamer for about 20–25 minutes, or cook on the stovetop with 1¼ cups water until tender and sticky.
2️⃣ Make Coconut Sauce
While the rice cooks, heat coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a small saucepan over medium heat until sugar dissolves. Do not boil.
3️⃣ Mix Sauce with Rice
When the rice is done, transfer to a bowl and pour in ¾ of the coconut mixture. Stir well. Cover and let it sit for 10 minutes to soak up the flavor.
4️⃣ Serve with Mango
Plate the sticky rice with sliced mango. Drizzle with the remaining coconut sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds or toasted mung beans if desired.
