Thai Mango Sticky Rice/泰國芒果糯米飯

IMG_6224.JPG

Last year when I first tried Thai mango sticky rice I was so amazed by this dish, I wanted to make it myself, but after I came back home I totally forgot about it until last night I saw the dish online again. I have all the ingredients at home, so I made it this morning.

Sticky sweet rice 1 cup

Coconut milk 1can (13.5oz.)

Sugar 4 tbsps

Mango 1

Salt 2 pinches

If you have a rice cooker at home, then this is super easy. If you don’t have one, it will be more steps but you can still do it.

With rice cooker:

Wash rice then pour all the rice to the rice cooker, add 2/3 of coconut milk and 2tbsps sugar to the it then close the lid cook it under the sweet rice setting.

Pour the rest of coconut milk in a small sauce pan, add the rest sugar and salt then bring it to boil. Add a little bit of starch water to thicken the sauce up. Cover it up and set aside.

When rice is ready, serve the rice with the sauce on the top and some mango slices or mango chunks on the side. I added some black sesame seeks to garnish it.

Without a rice cooker:

First you need to soak the rice in the water overnight then steam it over the boiling water for 15 minutes.

Bring all the coconut milk to boil, then add 2/3 of coconut milk and 2tbsps sugar to the rice while the rice is still hot, stir until mixed.

Cover the rice with a lid and leave it for 20 minutes or until all the coconut milk is absorbed by the rice.

Meanwhile add the rest sugar and salt to the rest of coconut milk. Add a little bit of starch water to thicken the sauce up. Cover it up and set aside.

When rice is ready, serve the rice with the sauce on the top and some mango slices or mango chunks on the side. I added some black sesame seeks to garnish it.

去年當我第一次嘗試泰國芒果糯米飯的時候, 我對這道菜感覺是驚爲天人, 我想自己回家也要做一下, 但回家後我完全忘了, 直到昨晚我又在網上看到了這道菜。我家裡有所有的食材, 所以今天早上就做了。

糯米飯1杯

椰奶1罐 (13.5 盎司)

糖 4 湯匙

芒果1 個

鹽2小捏

如果你家裡有電飯煲, 做這道甜點就超級容易了。如果你沒有, 那麽步驟會多一點, 但你仍然可以做到。

有電飯煲:

將米洗乾淨倒入電飯煲裏, 加入 2/3椰奶和2湯匙糖, 然後設置糯米蓋上蓋上煮熟。

把剩下的椰奶倒在一個小鍋裡, 加入剩下的糖和鹽, 然後煮開。加入一點澱粉水使醬汁變濃稠。把它蓋起來, 放在一邊。

糯米煮熟后, 把上面的醬汁淋在飯上面加一些芒果片或芒果塊就可以吃了。我加了一些黑芝麻裝飾它。

沒有電飯煲:

首先, 你需要把米浸泡在水中過夜, 然後隔滾水蒸 1 5分鐘到熟。

把所有的椰奶倒到一小鍋裏煮開, 然後在糯米飯還熱的時候加入 2/3 椰奶和2湯匙糖, , 攪拌至混合。

在米飯上蓋上蓋子, 放 20分鐘, 或者直到所有的椰奶都被米飯吸收。

同時將剩下的糖和鹽加入到剩下的椰奶中加入一點澱粉水將其煮開, 使醬汁變濃稠。把它蓋起來, 放在一邊。

糯米煮熟后, 把上面的醬汁淋在飯上面加一些芒果片或芒果塊就可以吃了。我加了一些黑芝麻裝飾它。

Fruit Jello/水果果凍

I bought a lot of mango recently, so I need to come up with some more ways of eating them. I found out I have a bag of Agar-agar powder at home so I decided to make fruit jello for mother’s day dessert. This tastes much better than store bought jello, very fruity!!! Most importantly you can adjust the sugar according to your own preferences. The ratio of agar-agar powder to the water/juice/puree is 1gram : 120 gram. You can use other kind of juice, fruit to make this.

Repeat the above steps for strawberry layer, then pour it over the mango layer. leave it in the refrigerator for 15 minutes.

Every year at this time, I will make mango mousse cake because it is mango season again. This time I used xiao Gao Jie’s chiffon cake for base, it is really moist and delicious. Here is the link:

The fresh juicy mango is so so good, so the cake turns out to be SUPER delicious too!

The only difference is I added some fresh mango chunks between the mousse and the top mirror layer.
