Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients

  

• 1 cup sticky rice, soaked
• 1 cup coconut milk
• 1/4 cup sugar
• 1/2 tsp salt
• 2 ripe mangoes
• 1 tbsp sesame seeds

Method

 

1. Steam the soaked sticky rice for 20-25 minutes until translucent and chewy.
2. Warm 1 cup coconut milk with sugar and salt; stir into the hot rice.
3. Rest covered 30 minutes — the rice drinks the coconut milk.
4. Simmer the topping coconut milk with rice flour and a pinch of salt until thick.
5. Serve rice with mango slices, topped with the salted cream and sesame.

Notes

The salt in the topping is essential — sweet-on-sweet without it falls flat.
