This menu is well known around the world as “Sticky Rice with Mango” in English or it called “Khao-Neow-Ma-Muang” in Thai. It is my favorite afternoon break dessert. This menu originally from Thailand and popular dessert menu that almost every Thai restaurants would always have it in their menu with coconut ice cream.
The Sticky Rice Mango has a sweet flavor with creamy and salty from coconut milk that I pour over the sweet sticky rice.
