Most of the Thai restaurants have this dessert dish on their menu. Not only because it’s traditional but they are pretty simple to make. With just a few ingredients you can creates a beautiful dessert that tasted great and appeals to the eyes too. Your guest will be impressed when you serve this to them. If you haven’t tried it, give this dessert a go. I am sure you will not be disappointed.
Ingredients:
1 cup glutinous/sticky rice – wash and soak overnight
1 tsp salt
1 - 2 drop of pandan paste
1 1/2 cups coconut milk
¼ cup sugar
¼ tsp cornstarch + 1 tbsp water
3 ripe mangoes – peel and sliced
1. Prepare a steamer. Put the rice in a steaming pan, add in pandan paste and mix well. Steam the rice until tender. This will take about 25 minutes.
2. In the meantime, place the coconut milk in a heavy pot and heat over medium heat until hot. Do not boil. Add the sugar and salt and stir to dissolve completely.
3. When the sticky rice is tender, remove from steamer and pour 1 cup of the hot coconut milk over (reserve the rest for sauce) stir to mix the coconut milk into the rice. Cover and let it stand for half an hour.
4. Heat up the balance of the coconut milk mix, add in cornstarch solution and bring it up slow boil. Turn off the heat once sauce thickens.
5. To serve, place the sticky rice on plates. Top it with a few slices of mango and drizzle in some coconut sauce.

I have yet try the Thai sticky rice pudding. Must try it some day. Btw, doesn't it sounds like something we have here without the mangoes but with kaya jam. Thanks for sharing. Hope you're enjoying your day.

OMG this is one of my favourite desserts! I haven't had it since I moved... the thai restaurant I frequent here doesn't have it.
I'll have to give the recipe a try... yum!
Scrumptious! Love this dessert and a must have when I go Thai restaurant.
I just love how you decorate the desserts.. so creative & beautiful.
Now is mango season, look like i need to buy some to prepare this yummy dessert!
One of my all time favourite desserts - thanks so much for the recipe.
this is so delicious! i must try this soon!
This is one of my favourite dessert,Gert.When we were living in Bangkok,almost everyday I'll buy this and makan.You would think that it is cheap in Thailand but it is not.If I'm not mistaken,it was about rm10 a plate and they only give you half a mango.It is much cheaper to buy this in Malaysia at those Thai Fair that you can find everywhere now in Malaysia.The star of this dessert is not the pulut or the kuah but for me the mango.Here in NZ difficult la to find the Thai mango..almost all our mangoes comes from Peru...no taste...and if dapat Thai mangoes,NZ$7 for a small tiny biji...like that the kulit and biji also must makan..hahaha.
Nice green and gold ... very Aussie colour :)

Carpensm, hope you like this.
Jenn, thank you.
Sonia, wish I can get the type of mango from back home for this dessert :(
The Sudden Cook, you are welcome.
Jess, thank you.
Shereen, the last time I visited Bangkok was 2005 so it has been a while. Not sure how much it cost now. We can get only two types of mango here. One is the round and big green kind which tasted bad and the other one is the small yellow kind which is pretty good. That is the one I used. Most of our Mangoes came from Mexico. Yea I love those big Thai Mangoes too.
Lisa, ha ha..it summer there so you get plenty of mangoes :)
Yummy Koh, thank you.
Cathy, me too :)
Jeannie, thank you.
Xiaolu, thank you.

Alice, thanks.
Ciijubg Foodies, thank you.
The 2nd picture is so appealing that I am drooling in front of my screen.
I wonder if it is v sweet? I always have the impression that Thai desserts are quite sweet.
Love to try this recipe. But how much water to add to the rice when steaming? Please advice. Thanks.
Anon, you don't need any water as you already soak the rice overnight. The liquid is the 1 cup of coconut milk you add later. See point 1 and 3.
