Thai Mango Sticky Rice

Does this looks like sushi to u?? :D While cooking the coconut rice, I just happen to have this idea of shaping the rice into sushi shape! This dessert is so addicting that I could not stop at one! So sinful >.<

Recipe adapted from Periplus 'Fabulous Cakes & Dessets'
Ingredient (2-3 servings)

• 100gm uncooked glutinous rice
• 150gm thin coconut milk (60gm coconut cream + 90gm water)
• 80gm thick coconut cream
• 50gm sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1 large mango, peeled & sliced into wedges
• extra coconut cream for serving

Method

1. Rinse the glutinous rice thoroughly and soak over night.
2. In a small saucepan, combine rice with thin coconut milk, sugar & salt. Stir well and bring to boil.
3. Lower heat and simmer over low heat stirring frequently, until the coconut mixture is absorbed and the rice is dry and sticky, about 10-15mins. (Note : Taste to see the rice is cooked after 10mins, if is still uncooked and too dry, add 1-2 tbsp water and cook for another 5mins, do not over cook as u want a chewy texture instead a lump of mushy mass)
4. Cool slightly, scoop into serving bowl or mould into balls, top with sliced mangoes & coconut cream. Serve immediately.
