Thai Mango Sticky Sweet Rice Dessert Recipes

Steps:

• Soak the sweet rice overnight.
• Drain.
• Place rice on cheesecloth and steam for about 30 minutes.
• Bring coconut milk to a boil with sugar and salt, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and remove from heat.
• Transfer the rice to the rice cooker and let it steam for about 30 minutes after it pops.
• In the meantime, make sure rice is sticky enough(fully cooked)but not overcooked like a paste. Stir in 2/3 coconut mixture.
• Rice can be served warm immediately or serve chilled.
• Divide rice into 2 servings, place the chopped mangoes on top or on the side. Drizzle desserts with the remaining sauce.

Steps:

• In a bowl wash rice well in several changes of cold water until water is clear. Soak rice in cold water to cover overnight.
• Drain rice well in a sieve. Set sieve over a large deep saucepan of simmering water (sieve should not touch water) and steam rice, covered with a kitchen towel and a lid, 30 to 40 minutes, or until tender (check water level in pan occasionally, adding more water if necessary).
• While rice is cooking, in a small saucepan bring 1 cup coconut milk to a boil with 1/3 cup sugar and salt, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and remove from heat. Keep mixture warm.
• Transfer cooked rice to a bowl and stir in coconut-milk mixture. Let rice stand, covered, 30 minutes, or until coconut-milk mixture is absorbed. Rice may be prepared up to this point 2 hours ahead and kept covered at room temperature.
• While rice is standing, in cleaned small pan slowly boil remaining 1/3 cup coconut milk with remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Transfer sauce to a small bowl and chill until cool and thickened slightly.
• To serve, mold 1/4 cup servings of sticky rice on dessert plates. Drizzle desserts with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Divide mango slices among plates.
