Coconut Mango Sticky Rice
Created by: Howcan Team
Ingredients
- 1 cup of sticky rice
- 1 1/2 cups of coconut milk
- 1/2 cup of sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon of salt
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced
- 4 coconut shells, cleaned and dried
Instructions
- Rinse the sticky rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then soak the rice in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- After soaking, drain the rice and place it in a steamer lined with cheesecloth. Steam the rice for 20-25 minutes, or until tender.
- In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of coconut milk, sugar, and salt. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is dissolved and the mixture is slightly thickened.
- Transfer the steamed rice to a bowl and pour the coconut milk mixture over the rice. Stir to coat the rice evenly and let it sit for 10 minutes to absorb the coconut milk.
- In another saucepan, heat the remaining 1/2 cup of coconut milk until warm.
- To serve, place a portion of the coconut sticky rice in each coconut shell, top with sliced mango, and drizzle with the warm coconut milk.
- Enjoy the Coconut Mango Sticky Rice directly from the coconut shell with a spoon, savoring the tropical flavors.
Mango Sticky Rice is a beloved Thai dessert that has been enjoyed for centuries. The dish features sweet sticky rice topped with ripe mango slices and drizzled with rich coconut milk. In recent years, a creative twist has emerged, with some chefs serving this delectable treat in a hollowed-out coconut shell. This presentation adds a delightful tropical flair to the dish, enhancing the overall sensory experience. Renowned restaurants in Thailand, such as Bo.Lan in Bangkok, have gained acclaim for their exquisite rendition of Mango Sticky Rice in a coconut shell. The key to perfecting this dish lies in using ripe, fragrant mangoes and high-quality coconut milk. For those seeking an alternative method, some chefs infuse the sticky rice with pandan leaf for an extra layer of flavor. Today, the best versions of this dish can be found in authentic Thai eateries that prioritize fresh, premium ingredients.
