Allergens
Contains no common allergens unless specified.
Ingredients
- 2 cups Thai glutinous rice
- 1 can (14 oz) coconut milk
- 2 cups water
- 1/2 cup granulated sugar
- 1/4 tsp salt
- 4 ripe mangoes
- 1/2 cup caramel sauce
- Fresh mint leaves for garnish
Instructions
- Rinse the glutinous rice until water runs clear, then drain and transfer to a rice cooker. Add coconut milk, water, sugar, and salt into the rice cooker, and stir well. Cook the rice on the 'Sticky Rice' setting or according to your rice cooker's instructions. Once cooked, let the rice stand for 10 minutes before fluffing with a fork. While the rice is still warm, gently separate it into individual bite sized portions and shape them into balls using damp hands. Place the rice balls on a serving plate and set aside. Peel and slice the mangoes into thin strips. Top each rice ball with a few mango slices and drizzle with caramel sauce. Garnish with fresh mint leaves and serve immediately.
Chef’s Insight
Using warm, damp hands helps prevent the sticky rice from sticking together while shaping the bites.
Notes
Adjust the sweetness of the caramel sauce according to personal preference.
