Mango Sticky Rice - ข้าวเหนียวมะม่วง
Mango sticky rice (khaoniao mamuang) is one of the most traditional Thai desserts and also one of the most delicious ones. It all starts with glutinous rice, that is cooked in the coconut milk. A funny fact is that unlike other deserts, this one is served warm or room temperature. The fresh and sweet mango gives the twist that will make your mouth explode. So let's start this delicious recipe. Ingredients: 1 peeled mango 1 cup coconut milk 2 pinches salt 1 cup glutinous rice 2 tablespoons sugar Preparation: The traditional way of cooking the rice, it is soaking it overnight in water and then steamed it. But if you want to do this step in a fast way with the same result, just soak the rice in a bowl with warm water (the water level should be just above the rice) for about 10 minutes and put it in the microwave for 3 minutes full power. Check if it is cooked and if no,t just heat it up again for 3 minutes and so on, till is fully cooked. Cover the bowl so that this process can be quicker. Meanwhile, let"s show some love to the coconut milk. Heat the coconut milk over medium heat and add the sugar and salt. Be very careful during the coconut milk in heating because it quickly curdles if starts boiling. Here you need to slowly stir and start to imagine yourself eating this amazing desert. Pour 3/4 of the coconut milk over the rice and wait 5 minutes. Magic is about to happen. Get your favorite bowl or dish and set two spoons of rice and the mango. Pour some spoons of the rest of the coconut milk into the rice and mango. If you have roasted coconut chips, it will take this dessert to another level. I hope you enjoyed this recipe and please share your Mango Sticky Rice and your thoughts. “Cooking with love provides food to the soul.”
