One of my favourite treats from Thailand. Not quite as good, but close enough!
Makes 1 servings.
Place the rice in a bowl and cover with water. Leave for at least 3 hours, or overnight.
Rice |
||
1 cups | glutinous rice | |
1 Tbsp | sugar | |
0.5 tsp | salt | |
Coconut sauce |
||
1 cups | coconut milk | |
4 Tbsp | sugar | |
1 tsp | salt | |
2 Tbsp | rice flour | |
Salty coconut topping |
||
1 cups | coconut milk | |
4 Tbsp | sugar | |
1 tsp | salt | |
2 Tbsp | rice flour | |
1 | mango |
Add some water to a steamer, and bring to the boil. Drain the rice, and transfer onto a clean tea towel. Pat down to evenly cover the central part of the towel, then fold in the top and sides so it is folded into a kind of pillow. Cover and steam for 20 mins. While the rice is steaming, mix the coconut sauce ingredients in a separate bowl. Add the steamed rice while still hot, and mix well. Cover and leave for 45 mins. To make the salty coconut topping, place the rice flour in a saucepan to start with, and add small amounts of of coconut milk while stirring to prevent lumps. Add all remaining salty coconut topping ingredients, and cook for 3-4 mins until it thickens a bit. Serve with mango.
