How to Make Sticky Rice With Mango And Lime

  1. Rinse the glutinous rice thoroughly under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.
  2. In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 1 ¼ cups of water. Bring to a boil over medium heat.
  3. Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until almost all the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
  4. Remove from heat and gently stir in the coconut cream. Cover and let stand for 5-7 minutes, or until the coconut cream is absorbed.
  5. Stir in the granulated sugar. Set aside to cool slightly.
  6. While the rice cools, prepare the banana leaves: Blanch them in boiling water for 1-2 minutes to soften. Drain and set aside.
  7. Divide the sticky rice into 6 equal portions.
  8. Lay a banana leaf flat. Place half of a rice portion in the center of the leaf.
  9. Top with a sprinkle of diced mango, lime zest, lime juice, and palm sugar (if using).
  10. Cover the filling with the remaining rice portion.
  11. Carefully roll the banana leaf tightly into a parcel and secure with toothpicks.
  12. Heat a grill or grill pan over medium heat. Grill the rice parcels for 2-3 minutes per side, or until heated through and lightly charred.
  13. Remove from grill, let cool slightly, and serve warm or at room temperature.
