Classic Mango Sticky Rice

Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

2. 2

   Soak the rice in water for at least 1 hour, or overnight for best results.

3. 3

   Drain the rice and steam it in a rice cooker or a steamer for about 20-25 minutes, or until tender.

4. 4

   While the rice is cooking, heat the coconut milk in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the sugar and salt, stirring until dissolved. Do not let it boil.

5. 5

   Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and pour 1 cup of the sweetened coconut milk over it. Stir well to combine and let it sit for about 20 minutes to absorb the flavors.

6. 6

   Peel and slice the ripe mangoes.

7. 7

   To serve, place a portion of the sticky rice on a plate, arrange mango slices on top or beside the rice, and drizzle with the remaining sweetened coconut milk.
