STICKY RICE WITH MANGO



Sticky Rice With Mango image

Also known as "sweet rice" or glutinous rice (despite being gluten free), sticky rice is a large white grain that, when steamed, becomes translucent, shiny and, well, sticky. In French, it's called riz gluant or gluey, not much more attractive. There should be a better word for it, because it really is undoubtedly one of the best things to eat under the sun.

Categories     dessert

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 cup glutinous (sweet) rice, preferably long-grain
1 1/4 cup coconut milk, fresh or canned (see note)
1/2 cup granulated cane sugar, raw sugar or light brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon fine sea salt
1/2 cup coconut cream, fresh or canned (see note)
1 or 2 ripe mangoes, peeled and cut in 1/2-inch slices

Steps:

  • Put rice in a bowl and rinse several times in cold water until water is clear, not milky, then drain. Cover rice with cold water and let soak for at least 2 hours or up to 24 hours.
  • Drain rice using a fine-meshed sieve or colander (line with cheesecloth if colander holes are too large). Place rice over a pot of rapidly simmering water (don't allow water to touch sieve) and steam, covered, for 15 minutes.
  • Remove lid and flip rice over. Continue steaming, covered, for 10 minutes, until rice is translucent and glossy. Taste to make sure rice is completely cooked; it may take up to 10 minutes more. Turn off heat. Fluff rice with a wooden spoon, then cover and let rest for 5 minutes.
  • While rice cooks, put coconut milk, sugar and salt in a small saucepan over low heat. Cook, stirring, just until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
  • Put warm rice in a serving bowl. Pour coconut milk mixture over rice and stir well. Leave for 10 minutes to let absorb, then stir in coconut cream. Serve warm or at room temperature with mango slices.

MANGO AND COCONUT RICE SALAD



Mango and Coconut Rice Salad image

Everybody knows now that the undisputed king of mangoes is the Indian Alphonso. It is intensely sweet and has an unbeatable perfumed aroma. I'd go as far as saying that you haven't tasted a real mango until you've tried an Alphonso (and nobody is paying me for this). The season, though, is very short-mid-April to the end of May-so try to prepare this salad then.

Yield Serves 4

Number Of Ingredients 17

2/3 cup jasmine or basmati rice
1 tsp unsalted butter
Salt
1/2 cup water
1 cup loosely packed Thai basil
1 cup Camargue red rice
1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced
2 tbsp mint leaves, roughly chopped
2/3 cup cilantro leaves, roughly chopped
2 green onions, thinly sliced
1 fresh red chile, seeded and finely chopped
Grated zest and juice of 1 lemon
1 large mango or 2 smaller ones, cut roughly into 1-inch dice
1/2 cup roasted salted peanuts, roughly chopped
2/3 cup flaked coconut
2 tbsp peanut oil
3/4 cup crisp-fried shallots (homemade or bought, optional)

Steps:

  • Start by cooking the rice. Put the jasmine rice and butter in a small saucepan and place on a medium heat. Add a little salt, the water and half the Thai basil (keep the leaves attached to the stalk). Bring to the boil, then cover and cook on a slow simmer for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and discard the basil. Spread out the rice on a flat tray to cool down.
  • Cook the red rice in plenty of boiling water (as you would cook pasta but with no salt) for 20 minutes, or until it is cooked through. Drain and spread on a tray to cool down.
  • Pick off the leaves of the remaining basil and chop them up roughly. Place them in a large mixing bowl. Add the jasmine and red rice together with all the remaining ingredients, apart from the shallots, and stir just to mix; do not stir too much or the mango pieces will disintegrate. Taste and adjust the seasoning. Transfer the salad into serving bowls and garnish with crisp-fried shallots, if you like.

ASPARAGUS MANGO DUMPLINGS WITH COCONUT BASIL RICE



Asparagus Mango Dumplings With Coconut Basil Rice image

Provided by Tintinity

Categories     Mango

Time 1h30m

Yield 6 dumplings, 2-3 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 26

2 cups whole wheat flour
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 cup boiling water
1 red onion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon cumin seed
1 teaspoon coriander seed
1/2 teaspoon curry powder
5 garlic cloves, chopped
1 1/2 teaspoons ginger, chopped
2 red chili peppers, chopped
1/2 lb oyster mushroom, separated into smaller pieces
1/2 cup mango juice
1 mango, chopped
3 scallions, chopped
1/2 cup cilantro, chopped
1 teaspoon coconut butter
4 garlic cloves, chopped
1 scallion, chopped
1/2 teaspoon red pepper flakes
1/4 cup basil, reserve some for plating and chop the rest
1 cup rice
2 cups water
1 teaspoon broth, powder
6 asparagus, end removed
red cabbage leaf
2 limes

Steps:

  • Add the water to a bowl with the flour and mix together with a wooden spoon. If it is too sticky you can add more flour a tablespoon at a time. If it is too dry you can add more water a tablespoon at a time. Knead for 10 minutes until a hole poked in the dough fills back inches Let it rest in a covered bowl for 30 minutes.
  • Heat a bit of oil or broth in a large skillet or wok on high heat. Once hot, add the onion and sauté for about three minutes. Add the spices wait a minute, stir, and then add garlic, chilies, and ginger. Stir for another minute then add the mushrooms and stir fry for another 3 minutes. Deglaze the bottom of the pan with the juice and add the mango. Sauté for another minute or two then add the scallions and cilantro and remove from the heat.
  • Melt the coconut butter over medium heat making sure that it doesn't burn. Add the garlic and scallion and sauté for about three minutes. Add the red pepper flakes, the rice, and the basil and cook another minute. Finally, add the water and the broth powder, mix well, reduce heat to low, cover and steam rice for about 30 minutes.
  • Fill your steamer pot with water, the leftover trimmings, and the limes. Line your steamer tray with red cabbage leaves. I have a bamboo steamer that has two layers, you could use a steamer insert though and just do three at a time putting them upright and then keeping them warm in the oven. Roll out your dough into a rope and tear of fist sized portion. Roll the dough into a ball and then press it together between to parchment sheet. Roll it into a thin flat disc, about 7 inches in diameter. Scoop two tablespoons of filling into the middle of the disc and then seal into a half moon shape. Place the asparagus with the bottom in the middle of the dumpling and fold the two corners over it and seal the edges with water if necessary. Repeat until you have 6 for two people. I made extra dumplings with the leftover filling for later and just folded them into half moons without the asparagus. Bring the steamer water to a boil and place the dumpling in the tray. Alternate the trays after about 5 minutes of cooking. Remove the dumpling with tongs and if the rice isn't ready put them in a warmed oven until you are ready. For plating I put the steamed red cabbage leaves and some basil leaves on the bottom of the bowl, I molded the rice into a smaller bowl and inverted it in the center of the dish. I topped arranged the dumplings on top, and sprinkled some sesame seeds and a mix of soy sauce, lime, and siracha. Enjoy!

RICOTTA DUMPLINGS WITH BUTTERED PEAS AND ASPARAGUS



Ricotta Dumplings With Buttered Peas and Asparagus image

These dumplings are a way to get the satisfaction of making your own pasta without having to make your own pasta. This recipe doesn't require you to drain the ricotta, but if you notice that yours is especially wet, you may want to add a tablespoon or two more of flour to make sure the dough stays together. It should be like a very wet biscuit dough (and not pourable or soupy). As for the vegetables, this dish is a truly excellent canvas for anything seasonal (asparagus and peas in the spring, cherry tomatoes in the summer, mushrooms in the fall, squash in the winter), so adjust as you like.

Provided by Alison Roman

Categories     dinner, weekday, pastas, main course

Time 30m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 cups whole-milk ricotta
2 large eggs
Kosher salt and black pepper
3/4 cup all-purpose flour
4 tablespoons unsalted butter
2 tablespoons olive oil, plus more for serving
1 large leek, white and light green parts only, thinly sliced
1 bunch asparagus, woody ends removed, cut into 2-inch pieces
2 cups shelled fresh or frozen peas
3 cups pea shoots or leaves, thick stems removed
1/4 cup parsley or mint leaves, for serving
Parmesan or pecorino, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil.
  • Combine ricotta and eggs in a large bowl. Season with salt and pepper and, using a large wooden or metal spoon, gently mix in the flour, taking care not to overmix (which could result in tough dumplings).
  • Meanwhile, heat butter and 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high. Add leeks and season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring occasionally, until leeks have softened completely and are starting to pick up some color, 5 to 8 minutes.
  • Add asparagus and peas to the skillet and season with salt and pepper. Cook, tossing occasionally, until asparagus is just tender and bright green, 2 to 4 minutes, depending on its thickness. Remove from heat while you cook the dumplings.
  • When the water is at a nice steady boil, drop the ricotta mixture into the pot by the heaping spoonful. (The dumplings will expand in the water, so make them slightly smaller than you'd like them to end up.) Be careful not to crowd the pot; cook the dumplings in batches if need be.
  • Once the dumplings rise to the top, let them boil until cooked through, 4 to 5 minutes. (You can always pull one out and cut it in half to test its doneness; the texture will go from dense and doughy to light and pillowy.)
  • As the dumplings finish cooking, use a slotted spoon to transfer them to the skillet with the peas and asparagus. Once they're all in there, give everything a quick toss over medium heat just to evenly coat the dumplings in the buttery sauce. Add pea shoots and toss just to wilt slightly.
  • Transfer to a large serving bowl or platter and top with parsley, cheese and more olive oil, if you like.

STICKY COCONUT RICE, MANGO & PASSION FRUIT



Sticky coconut rice, mango & passion fruit image

With flavours straight from Thailand, this is a wonderfully fresh way to end a celebratory meal

Provided by Raymond Blanc

Categories     Dessert, Dinner

Time P1D

Number Of Ingredients 12

250g Thai sticky rice
225ml unsweetened coconut milk
85g-100g golden caster sugar
juice 1 lime
1 ripe mango , peeled, stoned and chopped
juice 1 orange (to give 60ml)
1 tbsp lime juice
50g golden caster sugar
1-2 ripe mangoes , peeled, halved and very thinly sliced
3 passion fruits , halved
small mint leaves
zest 1 lime , cut into julienne strips

Steps:

  • A day ahead, wash the rice with plenty of cold water, then drain and tip it into a bowl. Pour over enough cold water to more than cover it, then leave to soak overnight.
  • Make the mango sauce. Liquidise the mango flesh with the orange juice, lime juice and sugar. Taste and add a little extra sugar or lime juice if necessary. Pass through a fine sieve, then chill if making ahead.
  • Drain the rice, transfer to a steamer and steam for 25-30 mins until soft and tender, making sure the water doesn't boil dry. Simmer the coconut milk with 85g of the sugar for 1 min. Pour in the lime juice, stir in the steamed rice, then leave, covered, for 5 mins until it has a thick, creamy consistency. Check for sweetness, adding more sugar to taste if needed. Cool slightly, about 10 mins, until tepid and holding its shape. The rice is best served slightly warm, as the longer it is left, the firmer and sticker it becomes.
  • For each serving, place a 6.5cm diameter x 3.5cm tall ring mould in the middle of a large plate. Spoon in one-sixth of the sticky rice. Drizzle a little mango sauce on the plate around the rice. Arrange a few slices of mango on the sauce and lay a few on top of the rice with a sprinkling of lime zest. Spoon around some passion fruit seeds and juice. Scatter over a few mint leaves. Serve the remaining mango sauce separately.

COCONUT STICKY RICE WITH MANGO



Coconut Sticky Rice with Mango image

Mangoes are available almost all year long in Thailand and there is never a shortage of rice. Here is a sinful dessert that joins the two. I know rice is rarely considered a dessert food, but this is a delicious treat. Coconut sticky rice can be eaten with any fruit and is great by itself. Thai sweet rice, not jasmine, is used to make this dish. What makes the rice stick together is its high starch content. Sweet rice is actually steamed instead of simmered. I use a traditional bamboo steamer insert for this. In the United States, Manila mangos are in season for 3 to 4 months out of the year, their extra sweetness and soft texture make them a perfect accompaniment to the coconut sticky rice.

Provided by Jet Tila

Categories     dessert

Time 3h45m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 5

3 cups (640 grams) Thai sweet rice
2 cups (480 milliliters) canned coconut milk
1 to 1 1/2 cups (240 to 330 grams) granulated sugar
1 teaspoon kosher salt
4 ripe Manila mangoes, peeled and sliced into thin long pieces

Steps:

  • Put the rice in a large bowl and cover with cold water. Soak for at least 3 hours, preferably overnight.
  • Transfer the soaked rice to a cone-shaped bamboo steamer basket. The rice should sit on the bottom of the basket. Add 4 cups water to the steamer pot. Heat the water on high until it is boiling.
  • Insert the basket into the pot and cover it to steam for 10 minutes. Flip the rice once and let it steam for another 10 minutes.
  • Heat the coconut milk, sugar and salt in a small saucepan until simmering, then remove from the heat. Reserve 1/4 cup and fold the remaining coconut sauce into the rice. Cover the rice for 30 minutes.
  • Serve with the mangoes or any fruit in season. Drizzle with the reserved 1/4 cup coconut sauce.

Tips:

  • To make the asparagus and mango dumplings, start by preparing the dumpling wrappers. Mix all-purpose flour, salt, and water in a bowl until a dough forms. Knead the dough for a few minutes until it is smooth and elastic. Cover the dough with plastic wrap and let it rest for at least 30 minutes.
  • While the dough is resting, prepare the filling for the dumplings. Slice the asparagus and mango into thin strips. In a bowl, combine the asparagus, mango, red onion, cilantro, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  • To assemble the dumplings, take a small piece of dough and roll it out into a thin circle. Place a spoonful of the filling in the center of the circle. Fold the dough over the filling to form a half-moon shape. Pinch the edges of the dough together to seal the dumpling.
  • To cook the dumplings, bring a large pot of water to a boil. Add the dumplings and cook for 3-4 minutes, or until they float to the top of the water. Remove the dumplings from the pot and drain them on paper towels.
  • To make the coconut-basil rice, cook the rice according to the package directions. Once the rice is cooked, stir in the coconut milk, basil, lime juice, and salt. Serve the dumplings with the coconut-basil rice.

Conclusion:

Asparagus mango dumplings with coconut-basil rice is a delicious and refreshing dish that is perfect for a summer meal. The dumplings are filled with a flavorful mixture of asparagus, mango, and herbs, and the coconut-basil rice is creamy and aromatic. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
