Method
Preparation
- Rinse the glutinous rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Soak it in water for at least 4 hours, or overnight for best results.
- Drain the soaked rice and place it in a steamer lined with cheesecloth. Steam for about 25 minutes, or until the rice is chewy and translucent.
Coconut Sauce
- While the rice is cooking, combine the coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a saucepan over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves (do not boil). Set aside a few tablespoons of this coconut sauce for drizzling later.
Combine and Serve
- Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl and pour the warm coconut sauce over it. Gently mix to ensure all the rice is coated. Allow it to sit for about 20 minutes.
- Peel the mangoes and slice them thinly.
- To present, place a generous scoop of sticky rice on a plate and arrange the mango slices on the side. Drizzle with the reserved coconut sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds or mung beans for garnish.
- Dig in and savor the explosion of flavors and textures!
Notes
For perfect texture, soak the rice overnight. Store leftovers in airtight containers, rice keeps for about 3 days in the refrigerator. Reheat by steaming.
