Ingredients:
1 1/2 cups glutinous (sweet) rice |
1 1/3 cups well-stirred canned unsweetened coconut milk |
1/3 cup plus 3 tablespoons sugar |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 tablespoon sesame seeds, toasted lightly |
1 large mango, peeled, pitted, and cut into thin slices (at least 24) |
Directions:
1. In a bowl wash rice well in several changes of cold water until water is clear. Soak rice in cold water to cover overnight. 2. Drain rice well in a sieve. Set sieve over a large deep saucepan of simmering water (sieve should not touch water) and steam rice, covered with a kitchen towel and a lid, 30 to 40 minutes, or until tender (check water level in pan occasionally, adding more water if necessary). 3. While rice is cooking, in a small saucepan bring 1 cup coconut milk to a boil with 1/3 cup sugar and salt, stirring until sugar is dissolved, and remove from heat. Keep mixture warm. 4. Transfer cooked rice to a bowl and stir in coconut-milk mixture. Let rice stand, covered, 30 minutes, or until coconut-milk mixture is absorbed. Rice may be prepared up to this point 2 hours ahead and kept covered at room temperature. 5. While rice is standing, in cleaned small pan slowly boil remaining 1/3 cup coconut milk with remaining 3 tablespoons sugar, stirring occasionally, 1 minute. Transfer sauce to a small bowl and chill until cool and thickened slightly. 6. To serve, mold 1/4 cup servings of sticky rice on dessert plates. Drizzle desserts with sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds. Divide mango slices among plates. |
