In India, the mango is revered as the “king of fruits” due to its nutritional properties, affordability and availability. Now that mangos are in season, serve them up with sweet sticky rice. Combine coconut milk and sugar for a homemade take on the Thai classic. Artfully slice tender mangos and pair with lime for a tangy twist.
Ingredients:
- 1 cup glutinous (sticky) rice
- ½ cup and 1 tablespoon of white granulated sugar
- 1 cup water
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 1 13.5 ounce can of coconut milk
