Linda Howard posted on Facebook that yesterday was National Dessert Day. When I commented that my fave one being Mango Sticky Rice with Coconut Creme, she asked for the recipe. Here it is:
Ingredients
2 cups glutinous rice
1 can coconut cream (either sweetened or unsweetened)
3/4 tbsp salt
sugar to taste
fresh mangoes
add for different taste: vanilla extract or banana extract or screwpine (Malaysian favorite additive) extract
There are two ways to do the rice. Boil the glutinous rice on high heat, stir, add 3/4 tbsp salt, keep stirring till rice is done.
OR
line collander with banana leafs, put washed rice in it, then steam in wok (with cover) at high for 1/2 to 45 mins.
Rice should be soft and translucent when done. When done, stir it, then cover it and let it "sit" while you prepare the cream.
Heat coconut cream, add a little thickener, add sugar (if needed) and the extract of choice. I love vanilla and screwpine (which makes it green). The cream should not be too thick.
Cut mangoes into little chunks.
Serve sticky rice with coconut creme on top with mango slices either on side. If you refrigerate, remember to cover well or the rice will dry out. Reheat in microwave with a little bit of coconut.
Enjoy!

This sounds scrumpious. I'll definitely try it.
Is this a Malaysian dessert of Thai? I love eating it but don't know much about it. Hehehe...
Fern, Malaysians and Thais have the same Mango Rice dessert. Malaysians like to put spicy stuff in them too. I eat too much of it!
