Thai Sweet Rice with Mangoes

1. 1

   Cover rice with water and soak at least 6 hours or overnight.

2. 2

   A couple of hours or so before serving, drain rice and spread on a cheesecloth-lined section of a steamer; steam for 45 minutes.

3. 3

   During the steaming, sprinkle the rice 2 times with 1/4 cup water.

4. 4

   Meanwhile, over medium heat using a Dutch oven or large saucepan, simmer the coconut milk on medium-low heat until it is reduced by one-third in volume.

5. 5

   Use caution toward the end of simmering, because the coconut milk can sen spouts of liquid 2 or 3 inches above the pan toward the end of the simmering time if it is too hot.

6. 6

   Remove from heat and stir in sugar and salt.

7. 7

   When rice is finished steaming and has rested for 10 minutes, blend it with the warm, sweetened coconut milk; allow to stand for 10 minutes.

8. 8

   Immediately arrange rice on platter and place mango on top.

9. 9

   Serve.
