Sticky rice

2 cups sticky rice, soaked overnight in water to cover
2 mangoes

SAUCE 1
1 cup coconut cream
1/2 cup sugar
pinch of salt

SAUCE 2
1 cup coconut cream
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp toasted sesame seeds

1. Drain the rice and place in an even layer in a steamer lined with cheesecloth so the rice does not fall through the holes. Steam the rice on full steam or high heat for 25 minutes.
2. While the rice is cooking combine the ingredients for Sauce 1. Remove the rice to a bowl and gradually pour Sauce 1 over the top while the rice is still hot. Set aside.
3. Peel the mangoes carefully so as not to bruise the fruit. Slice in half as close to the seed as possible, then slice each half into 1/2 in slices. (Or you can use canned mangoes.)
4. Place coconut rice on a serving plate with a couple mango slices on top.
5. Mix recipe for Sauce 2. This can be served separately or it can be poured over the top of the rice.
6. Garnish with toasted sesame seeds.
