Mango Sticky Rice Recipe (Thai Dessert) | Homecook Kay

glutinous rice

🥗Healthier: brown rice

💰Cheaper: regular rice

Brown rice adds fiber while regular rice is more accessible.

coconut milk

🥗Healthier: light coconut milk

💰Cheaper: coconut cream

Light coconut milk reduces calories while coconut cream is a richer alternative.

ripe mango

🥗Healthier: papaya

💰Cheaper: canned mango

Papaya offers similar sweetness and texture, while canned mango is often less expensive.

sesame seeds

🥗Healthier: chia seeds

💰Cheaper: sunflower seeds

Chia seeds provide omega-3s, while sunflower seeds are budget-friendly.

Soak sweet rice or long grain glutinous sticky rice for at least 4 hours.

Pour half a can of coconut milk into a pan and cook on medium heat.

Add sugar and mix well.

Mix potato/corn starch with water, then pour the mixture into the coconut milk and mix until the sauce thickens. Leave at room temperature.

Cut the mango into desired serving shapes (cubes or slices) and store in the fridge.

Drain water from soaked sweet rice and steam for 20-25 minutes on medium heat.

Once the rice is done, pour coconut milk all over the rice and let it soak at room temperature.

When the rice is cooled down, put coconut milk sauce on top of the rice and add mango on top.

Enjoy! Serve immediately.
