Ingredients

  • 1 cup jasmine rice, rinsed
  • 4 cups coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 teaspoon pandan extract
  • Pinch of salt
  • 1 cup diced mango
  • 1 cup diced papaya

Instructions

  1. In a saucepan, combine the rinsed jasmine rice, coconut milk, sugar, pandan extract, and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and has absorbed the liquid.
  2. In a separate saucepan, combine the diced mango, papaya, pineapple, and lime juice. Cook over medium heat for about 5 minutes, then mix cornstarch with water to create a slurry and stir it into the fruit mixture. Cook for another 2 minutes, or until the compote thickens.
