Evening Star

 

We fell in love with this dessert years ago, when Bangkok Thai restaurant was at Foothill Village.

 

Mango Sticky Rice

 

1 1/2 cups glutinous rice (sticky rice)

1 1/2 cups coconut milk

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon salt

2 ripe mangos, peeled and sliced

 

Place rice in a sieve. Rinse several times until water runs clear. Soak rinsed rice in water at least an hour; drain. Line bamboo steamer with cheesecloth, add rice, and steam over simmering water until grains are translucent. In a small saucepan, heat coconut milk over medium heat. Stir in sugar and salt and continue stirring until sugar dissolves. Do not boil. Remove from heat. Transfer cooked rice to a bowl. Slowly pour coconut milk mixture over rice, stirring gently. Let the rice sit 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, peel and slice mangoes. Scoop rice onto small serving bowls and top with mango slices.
