Mango Sticky Rice

For those of you that have not tried Mango Sticky Rice you're truly missing out. And for those of you that eat frequently at my home and I have never made it for you, I apologize. It's a great Thai dessert.

Mango Sticky Rice

1 c Sweet Rice (or glutinous rice...this will NOT taste the same with any other rice!)
1 can coconut milk
1/2 c sugar
dash of salt
Mangoes (frozen can used and can be found at Trader Joe's, just make sure to thaw)

Soak 1 c of sweet rice in enough water to cover it (about 2 cups water) for 24 hrs. Do not drain the water.
Microwave at high heat and covered for 4 minutes.
Reduce heat to 50%, cover and cook for 12 minutes.
While rice is cooking heat coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a sauce pan. DO NOT LET BOIL!
After rice is cooked add about 1/2 of the coconut mixture to the rice and stir. Reserve the remaining mixture  to add a little more to the top off rice on the serving plate. If you have any leftovers store the rice and coconut mixture separate, heat separate then pour over hot leftover rice or else the rice will absorb all of the mixture.
Top with cold mangoes!
Enjoy!
