Ingredients
- 1 1/4 cup Glutinous (Sweet) Rice
- (1) ounce can full-fat canned coconut milk (divided)
- 1 cup water
- 1/2 cup sugar (divided)
- 1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon cornstarch
- 2 ripe mangoes (sliced)
- sesame seeds (optional)
Instructions
- Start by putting the rice in a bowl and rinse 6 or 7 times in cold water until water is clear, not milky and then drain. This helps to remove some of the starchiness from the rice.
- Place the rice, 1/2 cup of canned coconut milk, 1 cup of water, 1/4 cup of sugar, and a pinch of salt into a rice cooker and cook until most of the liquid is absorbed. Most recipes call for the rice to be soaked in water for at least 8 hours but we are skipping that step and going straight to the cooking. Also, traditional mango sticky rice recipes call for steaming the rice instead of directly cooking it on a stovetop or in a rice cooker. I found that I can get a similar texture by cooking in a rice cooker. Just don't overcook the rice.
- Make the coconut cream sauce by heating up the remaining heaping 1 cup of coconut milk and 1/4 cup of sugar in a saucepan. As it begins to heat and bubble, add in 1/2 teaspoon of cornstarch to slightly thicken the sauce. Make sure to use a whisk to make the smoothest coconut cream sauce. Set aside to cool.
- Slice the mangoes. Peel the mangoes and slice along the center membrane. Place the mangoes flat on a surface and cut into slices.
- To serve the Thai sticky rice with mango, put the sticky rice on a plate or bowl. Generously drizzle with coconut cream sauce. Place sliced mangoes on the plate. Sprinkle with sticky rice with sesame seeds, if so desired
- Serve warm or cold. This is best served right away or the rice will soak in all of the coconut cream.
Notes
- Since this Thai dessert has a particular texture, you can only get that by using glutinous sweet rice.
- Can I soak the rice overnight in water?
- Absolutely! I tried to offer some time-saving tips but if time is on your side, soak the rice overnight or for about 8 hours.
- Do I serve mango sticky rice warm or cold?
- I prefer to serve it as soon as I make it. This allows the best texture and it also keeps the sticky rice from soaking up all of the coconut sauce. If you want to serve it cold, I suggest placing it in the refrigerator for 25-30 minutes and then serving it.
- Can I use another type of rice?
