Mango and Sticky Rice
- 1 12 cups sticky rice (can be found in Asian markets, but any sweet glutinous rice such as Thai Jasmine or sushi rice can b)
- water
- 1 (14 ounce) can coconut milk
- 13 cup sugar
- 12 teaspoon salt
- Rinse rice several times until the water runs clear.
- Soak in water above the level of the rice 6-8 hours or overnight.
- Steam rice until soft (or you can boil it in lots of water until it's translucent and soft).
- It WILL be sticky - it's supposed to be.
- In the meantime, pour coconut milk into a saucepan and add salt and sugar.
- Heat just to a slow simmer - do not boil, as it will curdle.
- Remove from heat and reserve 1/3 cup to use as a sauce.
- Peel and slice mango.
- When rice is done, pour remaining sauce over the rice and allow to sit until all sauce is soaked into rice.
- To serve, scoop out a mound of sticky rice and serve with sliced mangoes on the top or the side.
- Use reserved sweetened coconut milk as a sauce if desired.
- Can also garnish with sesame seeds if desired.
- Best (in my opinion) eaten either room temperature or warm.
