Mango and Sticky Rice

My friends and I made mangoes and sweet sticky rice, a common Thai dessert. Sticky rice is mixed with coconut milk, sugar and a bit of salt, cooked a little then set on a plate, topped with juicy, ripe mango, and drizzled with coconut milk. Delicious!

No one I know had made it before, so one of my friends found a youtube video about how to make it. While the video was in Thai, I understood enough, and with my friend's help, it seemed pretty easy. Thais don't cook with recipes though, so even after watching a chef explain and make it, amounts had to be estimated. We got the main idea, and it tasted great.

I'm going back to the States this week to renew my visa and visit family and friends. Then I'll be back to Thailand. My main reason for wanting to learn to make this dish is so that I can make it for my family. It's one Thai dish I'm sure they will enjoy. :)
