Ingredients
- 1 cup glutinous rice sticky rice
- 2-3 Pandan leaves screwpine leaves, cut into 2-inch (5cm) length
- 2-3 fresh ripe mangoes peeled and cut into small cubes
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds optional
- banana leaf for steaming, optional
Instructions
- Soak the glutinous rice for at least 8 hours or overnight.
- Prepare the steamer with a banana leaf. Drain the glutinous rice and spread it out on the banana leaf. Throw in the Pandan leaves. Steam the glutinous rice for 20-25 minutes or until translucent.
- While the rice is cooking, cut the mangoes into small cubes and chill in the refrigerator until use.
- In a sauce pan, heat up the coconut milk over low heat. Add in the salt and sugar. Keep stirring until the sugar dissolved. Remove from the heat. Pour out 1/4 cup of the coconut milk and reserve for serving.
- When the glutinous rice is cooked, transfer it in to a bowl. Pour the rest of the coconut milk into the bowl and mix it with the glutinous rice. Keep stirring until it becomes a thick porridge consistency. Slowly, the rice will absorb all the coconut milk. Leave it to cool to room temperature.
- Serve the sticky rice with the chilled mangoes. Drizzle the reserved coconut milk over the rice and top it with some toasted sesame seeds.

Notes
- You can use a muslin/cheese cloth to steam the glutinous if you do not have a banana leaf.
- Pandan leaves are usually found in the frozen section of Asian grocery stores.
- You can omit the Pandan leaves if you don't have them readily available. This is used to give the sticky rice an extra fragrant.
