Mango sticky rice is a delicious and satisfying dessert made with sweet sticky rice, creamy coconut sauce, and fresh mango slices. This homemade version is healthier with less sugar and is simple to prepare.

Ingredients

For the Sticky Rice:

  • 1 cup uncooked sticky rice

For the Coconut Sauce:

  • 1 can full-fat coconut milk (13.5 oz / 400 g can)
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 2 teaspoons cornstarch (Optional)

For Serving:

  • 3 ripe mangoes, peeled and sliced
  • Toasted sesame seeds for garnish (Optional)

Instructions

  1. Rinse and Soak the Sticky Rice: Rinse the sticky rice, soak for at least 1 hour, then steam until cooked.
  2. Make the Coconut Sauce: Heat coconut milk, sugar, and salt until hot, but do not boil. Add cornstarch slurry if needed for thickness.
  3. Combine Rice and Sauce: Pour coconut sauce over cooked sticky rice and mix well until absorbed.
  4. Serve: Portion rice into bowls, add sliced mango, drizzle with extra sauce, and garnish with sesame seeds.

Notes

  • Some brands of coconut milk may require cornstarch to thicken the sauce for a creamier texture.
  • Adjust rice portion size for desired serving amount, with 1/3 cup per serving recommended for a dessert size.
