- ½ cup (100g) Thai sticky rice
- ½ cup (120ml) canned coconut milk
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
Coconut Sauce
- ⅓ cup (80ml) canned coconut milk
- 1 teaspoon rice flour
- ⅛ to ¼ teaspoon fine sea salt
- pinch of sugar
Toppings
- 2 ripe mangoes, sliced

Sticky Rice
Rinse the sticky rice and soak it in water for 4 hours.
Drain the water and take the sticky rice out onto a cheesecloth-lined steamer, and steam for 20 to 25 minutes, flipping the rice halfway through.
While the rice is steaming, put the coconut milk, sugar, and salt into a small saucepan and heat until the sugar melts.
Put the steamed sticky rice into a bowl and pour the coconut mixture over the rice. Mix together with a spoon and let it sit for 15 minutes.
