Ingredients
Scale
- 1 cup glutinous (sticky) rice
- 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced
- 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds (optional)
- 1 tablespoon toasted mung beans (optional)
Instructions
- Rinse the sticky rice in cold water until the water runs clear. Soak rice in water for at least 4 hours or overnight.
- Drain the rice and steam it in a steamer basket over boiling water for 20-25 minutes until tender.
- While rice is steaming, combine coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a saucepan. Heat gently until sugar dissolves; do not boil.

- Serve the sticky rice warm or at room temperature with sliced ripe mango on the side.
- Drizzle remaining coconut milk sauce over the rice and garnish with toasted sesame seeds or mung beans if desired.
Notes
For extra flavor, chill the sticky rice before serving and add a sprinkle of fresh shredded coconut for texture.
