Coconut Mango Sticky Rice (Dairy-Free)

Sweet sticky rice soaked in coconut milk and topped with fresh mango, a dairy-free take on a classic dessert.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup glutinous (sticky) rice soaked for 2–3 hours
  • 1 1/2 cups coconut milk full-fat
  • 1/3 cup coconut sugar or regular sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 2 ripe mangoes peeled and sliced
  • 1 tablespoon toasted sesame seeds optional, for garnish

Instructions

  1. Cook the soaked sticky rice in a steamer or pot until tender, about 20–25 minutes.
  2. In a medium saucepan, heat coconut milk, coconut sugar, and salt over low heat until sugar dissolves. Do not boil.
  3. Reserve 1/3 cup of the coconut mixture for topping. Pour the rest over the cooked sticky rice and stir gently. Let sit for 10 minutes to absorb.
  4. To serve, place sticky rice on a plate, top with fresh mango slices, and drizzle with reserved coconut sauce.
  5. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds if desired.
