Ingredients:
For the Glutinous Rice:
* 1 cup (150 grams) raw glutinous rice
* 2 cups (480 milliliters) water
* 1/4 teaspoon salt
For the Coconut Sugar Sauce:
* 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) unsweetened coconut flakes
* 1/4 cup (60 milliliters) unsweetened coconut cream
* 1 tablespoon (15 grams) palm sugar or brown sugar
* 1 tablespoon (15 grams) tapioca flour
* 2 tablespoons (30 milliliters) water
* pinch of salt
For the Mango Topping:
* 1 ripe mango, sliced into small cubes
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the Glutinous Rice
Rinse the glutinous rice and soak in cold water for at least 2 hours or overnight. Drain and rinse again.
Place the rinsed glutinous rice and water in a medium pot and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook until tender, about 15 minutes. Remove from heat and let sit, covered, for another 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork before serving.
Step 2: Make the Coconut Sugar Sauce
Dissolve the palm sugar or brown sugar in hot water in a small saucepan over low heat. Add the tapioca flour mixture and whisk until smooth. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, whisking constantly, until thickened, about 3-5 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Step 3: Cook the Mango Topping
Heat a non-stick pan over medium heat. Add the sliced mango and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly caramelized, about 5-7 minutes. Set aside.
Step 4: Assemble and Enjoy!
Divide the warm glutinous rice between four bowls. Top each portion with some of the caramelized mango and pour the coconut sugar sauce over everything. Garnish with additional fresh mango, coconut flakes, and mint leaves if desired. Serve immediately.
