Ingredients
  

  • 2-3 ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced
  • 1 cup glutinous sweet rice
  • 1 1/4 cups coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup coconut cream
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp cornstarch
  • Sesame seeds for garnish

Method
 

  1. Soak the sweet rice in water for at least 2 hours or overnight. Drain well.
  2. Steam the rice in a bamboo steamer or a makeshift steamer for about 20-30 minutes until tender.
  3. While the rice is steaming, combine 1 cup of coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a saucepan. Heat until the sugar is dissolved, then set aside.
  4. In a separate saucepan, combine the coconut cream with cornstarch and heat until slightly thickened.
  5. Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a bowl and pour half of the sweet coconut mixture over the rice. Mix well and let it sit for 10-15 minutes.
  6. Serve the sticky rice alongside sliced mangoes, drizzling the remaining coconut mixture on top. Garnish with sesame seeds. Enjoy!
