Steps:

• Combine water, black rice, and salt in a saucepan. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat and cover; simmer for 40 minutes.

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.

THAI STICKY RICE

Steps:

• Place rice in a large bowl and add enough room-temperature water to cover by 1 inch. Soak at least 4 hours and up to 10. Once rice has soaked, rinse rattan basket to dampen, then set upright in a colander. Rinse cheesecloth to dampen, then line the inside of the rattan basket in an even layer (there will be overhang). Set aside.
• Drain rice by slowly pouring off the water; when most of the water is gone, run the tap gently over the rice to rinse it, letting the water overflow from the bowl. As the tap runs, use your hand to gently stir the rice. The water will be cloudy at first, but it will become almost clear after 2-3 minutes. At that point, drain the rice in the sink using the cloth-lined basket fitted over the colander (discard the rinsing water). Add water to the steamer pot to a depth of 2 inches. Add pandan leaf, then bring water to a boil over high heat, 5 minutes.
• Tie the cheesecloth into a bundle so the rice is completely enveloped. Place the rattan basket on top of the steamer pot. Reduce heat to medium, and place a pot lid that fits snugly inside the steamer directly on top of the rice bundle. Allow the rice to steam for 15 minutes.
• After 15 minutes, remove pot lid. Use tongs to flip the cheesecloth bundle, so the top of the bundle now rests against the bottom of the basket. (Use the lid for assistance if necessary.) Replace the lid and steam for 15 more minutes.
• After a total of 30-35 minutes of steaming, remove rice cooker from heat. Serve immediately, or place rice bundle in an insulated container (such as an ice bucket) to maintain the heat, keeping the container covered until ready to serve, up to 1 hour.

THAI COCONUT RICE

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a saucepan, except the crystallized ginger and sliced almonds.
• Stir well to combine.
• Cook over medium high heat, stirring until mixture comes to a low boil.
• Immediately reduce heat to low.
• Cover and cook for about 18 minutes.
• Fluff with a fork.
• The cover, and let sit for 5 more minutes.
• Garnish the finished rice with the candied ginger and the sliced almonds.

THAI BLACK STICKY RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Soak rice: Place both rices in a bowl and cover with water (5cm / 2" above). Soak for 4 hours (up to 12 hours).
• Strain the rice and add it to a small pot or large saucepan.
• Pandan leaves: Add the knotted pandan leaves.
• Simmer 30 minutes: Add 4 cups of cold water. Bring to boil. Turn stove down to low so it's simmering very gently (small, slow little bubbles). Simmer 30 minutes (no lid), stirring frequently for the last 15 minutes and almost constantly towards the end (so the base does not catch).
• Consistency: Rice should be soft / fully cooked through, water reduced, and sauce should be creamy not watery (starch from rice thickens water).
• Add sugar: Stir in sugar and salt until it dissolves (~20 seconds).
• Ladle into bowls - it should ooze slowly, not be runny nor so thick it stays in a mound, see video for consistency. (If it's too thick, add a touch of water and stir).
• Toppings: Mix coconut cream with salt. Drizzle onto rice pudding. Top with toasted coconut and mango if using. Serve immediately.

THAI COCONUT CURRY

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large pan over medium heat. Saute lemon grass, ginger, and garlic until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Add coconut milk and bring to a boil. Keep at a steady boil until reduced by half, about 5 minutes.
• Add shrimp, bell pepper, 1/2 of the cilantro, green onion, lime juice, fish sauce, soy sauce, chili sauce, and sugar. Simmer for 10 minutes.
• Serve curry over warm rice and garnish with remaining cilantro.
