Sweet Coconut Sauce Recipes

Steps:

• In a small saucepan, whisk together the coconut milk, salt, sugar, and water. Place over medium heat and bring to a near-simmer, lowering the heat if the coconut milk spits or pops. Give the cornstarch mixture a good stir and add it to the sauce, mixing well. Cook, stirring, for about 30 seconds, or until the sauce thickens; then remove from the heat.
• Let the sauce cool, uncovered, to concentrate the flavors before serving. It will keep in a tightly closed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If you are serving it warm, reheat gently over low heat.

Steps:

• In heavy saucepan, combine sweetened condensed milk, egg yolks and margarine.
• Over medium heat, cook and stir until thickened and bubbly, about 8 minutes.
• Stir in remaining ingredients.
• Serve warm.
• Bottle and refrigerate leftovers.

Steps:

• Bring stock, coconut milk, and chicken to a boil in a 1 1/2- to 2-quart saucepan, then reduce heat and simmer, uncovered, 45 minutes.
• Crush lemongrass stalk with side of a heavy knife (to release oils), then thinly slice. Add lemongrass, ginger, and chile to coconut mixture and bring to a boil. Remove pan from heat and let stand, covered, 30 minutes.
• Pour sauce through a fine-mesh sieve into a bowl, discarding solids, then return to pan and bring to a boil. Season with salt. Blend sauce in a blender until frothy, about 30 seconds (use caution when blending hot liquids). Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Stir rice, coconut milk, and water together in a saucepan. Dissolve sugar into the liquid.
• Bring the mixture to a simmer, reduce heat to medium-low, place a cover on the saucepan, and simmer until the majority of the liquid has been absorbed by the rice, 15 to 20 minutes. Leaving saucepan on the burner, turn heat off and let rice steam until sticky, about 5 to 10 minutes more. Garnish with shredded coconut.
