MANGO INFUSED JASMINE RICE

Steps:

• Peel and core mangoes.
• Dice 1 mango into 1/4-inch cubes and set aside.
• Puree the other mango in a food processor with sugar and set aside.
• Place water and 1 cup coconut milk in pan with rice.
• Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally.
• When the rice reaches a boil, stir it one last time.
• DO NOT stir again.
• Place a clean dish towel between pot and lid, laying excess toweling on top of lid. (wrap lid in towel).
• Wrapping the lid in the towel will catch the condensation that accumulates on the underside of the lid and drips back down into the rice.
• This will give you nice, fluffy rice that separates easily.
• Turn the heat down to Low and cook for 20-25 minutes, until ALL of the liquid has absorbed.
• DON'T lift that lid until the 20 minute mark has passed.
• Stir in pureed mango.
• Remove from stove.
• Stir in diced mangoes and served garnished with the toasted black sesame seeds.
