Ingredients:
For the sticky rice:
1 cup jasmine rice (preferably brown)
2 cups water
1 tsp salt (optional)
For the coconut milk cream sauce:
1 can full-fat coconut milk
1/2 ripe mango (about 1 cup sliced), preferably Alphonso or Kensington variety
1 tbsp maple syrup or agave nectar
1 tbsp arrowroot powder
1/2 tsp ground cardamom pods
1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
1/4 tsp ground black pepper
1/2 tsp red chili flakes
Instructions:
Step 1: Prepare the sticky rice according to package instructions using the ratio of 1 part rice to 1.5 parts water. Cook until tender and slightly overdone (this will help the rice become stickier). Set aside uncovered in a warm place while you prepare the coconut milk cream sauce.
Step 2: For the coconut milk cream sauce, combine all ingredients in a blender and puree until smooth. Set aside.
Step 3: To assemble the dessert, spread about 1/3 of the cooked sticky rice onto the bottom of a small bowl or ramekin. Top with about 1/4 of the coconut milk cream sauce, followed by another layer of sticky rice. Continue alternating layers until you’ve used up both the rice and the sauce.
Note: You may not need to use all of the rice and sauce for one serving. Adjust as needed.
Step 4: Garnish the top of the rice pile with fresh mango slices, chopped nuts (if desired), and a sprinkling of toasted coconut flakes. Serve immediately.
