Coconut Rice With Sweet Chili Sauce Recipe 495 Recipes

SWEET COCONUT STICKY RICE

Steps:

• Don't skip this step! Soaking the rice will allow the grain to swell slightly and is key to creating authentic sticky rice.
• To do this, simply add your rice to a large bowl and submerge with water for 4-5 hours, or overnight. In a pinch, you could try to soak for two hours - but I definitely wouldn't go below that.
• Once soaked, drain and rinse thoroughly. The soaking water can be used to water plants.
• Depending on the size of your cooking pot, you need to add enough rice to come to around 2 inches below where the bamboo steamer basket is. I used three cups of water.
• Then line the steamer basket with either a cheesecloth or banana leaf and place the rice on top of it.
• Place a lid over the pot and steam for around 20 minutes, until soft but with a slight 'bite.' See the video and photo's for more guidance. Once ready, remove from the steamer and set aside in a bowl.
• In a small saucepan, combine the coconut milk, cane sugar, salt, and pandan leaves (or lime leaves) and heat on low for a few minutes. Then pour half of the liquid in with the rice and mix well.
• Place the sauce back over the heat. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, combine the starch and water and mix well, making sure it's lump-free.
• Add the starch mixture to the remaining milk and continue heating on low until the sauce thickens. Then you're ready to serve (read the post for serving options).
• Keep any leftover coconut sticky rice in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days. To reheat, you can re-steam or microwave, until warmed.

• Leave for 14 minutes.
• Remove from heat, and rest, undisturbed, for 10 minutes.
• Fluff with rubber spatula. Garnish with toasted coconut, if using, then serve.
