Black Sticky Rice Recipes

THAI COCONUT BLACK STICKY RICE

Steps:

• Rinse and drain rice, place in a large saucepan.
• Add water to cover rice. Remove any rice grains that float to the top.
• Bring to a boil over high heat, then lower heat to just keep a simmer.
• Simmer about 45 minutes, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender. Add more water if needed, or pour some off. You want the water level to be just below the level of the rice.
• Add coconut milk, sugar, and salt, and continue cooking until a pudding consistency is reached.
• Sprinkle shredded coconut over top, if desired. Serve warm.

THAI BLACK STICKY RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place drained, soaked rice in a pot together with brown sugar, salt, 1 can of coconut milk, and water.
• Boil half-covered until the liquid has been absorbed and the rice is soft to chew-about 45 to 50 minutes. (If necessary, add 1 cup more water and continue cooking until rice is tender.)
• When rice is done cooking, allow it to cool slightly. Preheat oven to 350 F.
• Add the remaining 1/2 can coconut milk plus the eggs. Mix thoroughly. Check the taste, adding a little more sugar if needed.
• Pour this mixture into one large baking dish, or divide up into individual ramekins. Cover with tin foil (or a lid if using a baking dish).
• Bake for 30 minutes. Remove from the oven and either serve warm or place in the refrigerator and serve cold.
• When serving, add a dollop of coconut cream on top (the solid cream from the top of a can of thick coconut milk), or whipped cream.
