Thai Mango Sticky Rice Dessert

Famous Thai dessert aka. (Khao Niaow Ma Muang) made with glutinous rice, fresh mango and coconut milk.

Originally the rice is just plain white color. But I added drop of pink coloring to give it a nice light pink shade.

Ingredients: (Serves 2)

80g Glutinous Rice

30g Coconut Milk

1 pc Golden Lily Mango

Pinch of Salt

1 tsp Sugar

1 pc Pandan Leaves

2 tsp Water

1 drop of pink colouring (optional)

1 tsp Black Sesame Seeds

Coconut sauce:

40g Coconut Milk

1/2 tbsp Sugar

1 pc Pandan Leaves

Pinch of Salt

Step by Step :

1. Wash glutinous rice and soak overnight with enough water (place in fridge).

2. Next day, drain the rice and prepare to steam.

3. Place cut pandan leaves on the bottom of plate, then spread drained rice on the leaves.

4. Steam for 20 mins on high heat. Remove from steamer and discard the pandan leaves.

5. Use a chopstick to dip into the pink colouring and mix the colouring into coconut milk. Stir to mix evenly. (Omit this step if you prefer plain white color rice)
