Khao Niao Mamuang (Sweet Sticky Rice With Mango)

                                                          Khao Niao Mamuang

This is one of our favorite dishes. Thai people call the rice Sticky Rice (Khao Niao) instead of Sweet Sticky Rice which is written on the bag it comes in. We are so happy that we can find all the ingredients in America. Let's see what we need.

Directions
Step 1
Sweet Rice 2 cups
Water 4 cups

1. Soak the rice with the water for at least 3 hours or overnight.
2. Steam the rice about 20 minutes or until it is cooked.

Step 2
Coconut milk 2 cups
Granulated sugar 1 1/2 cups

1. Use a saucepan turn on medium heat add coconut milk and sugar stir occasionally until the sugar melts.
2. Add the sweetened coconut milk (1/2 cup at a time) on the hot sticky rice. Mix them well until the rice is shiny. You don't have to use all of the coconut milk. You can save some to pour on the top of the rice before serving that will make the rice very moist before eating.

Step 3
