This menu is well known around the world as “Sticky Rice with Mango” in English or it called “ข้าวเหนียวมะม่วง” in Thai and pronouns as “Khao Neow Ma-Muang”. It is my favorite afternoon break dessert. This dish originally from Thailand and popular dessert menu at Thai restaurants here in USA.
My husband normally does not like to eat mango, however, he becomes a top fan of this menu after he tried my home cook Sticky Rice Mango since then. Every summer time here in Florida, it’s usually mango season and I normally make this menu almost every weekend. 😋
This Sticky Rice Mango has a sweet flavor with creamy and salty from coconut milk that I pour over the sweet sticky rice. I usually use honey mango or sweet mango that I can find at Asian grocery store. This menu is very filling due to the sticky rice is more heavier meal than steam rice and it is usually service with Sweet Thai Tea for afternoon break.
