Khao Nieow Moon- Sweet Glutinous Rice

I was blog hopping when I came across this website that cooks Thai food...the only Thai dish that I know was Tom yam soup, green curry chicken, mango salad and this sweet dessert!!!

I remembered, eating this when we were on holiday in Bangkok in 2004 . During the trip we were waiting for the plane back to Singapore at the airport. I cant really remember what was the shop's name, ..so if we want to buy, this lady will cut the mango and put in the glutinous rice for you..OoooHhhh!!!Sedap!!!... since then I never taste it again...until NOW!!! then I managed to get the recipe and ate till my hearts content...

Ingredients:-

350g glutinous rice-(350g beras pulut)

1 can coconut milk(I used 1 packet KARA coconut milk)-(1 kotak kecil santan kara)

3/4 cup sugar-(3/4 cawan gula)

11/4 tsp salt-(11/4 sudu kecil garam)

1 tsp rice flour-(1 sudu kecil tepung beras)

4-5 screw pine leaves(pandan leaves)-(4-5 daun pandan)

Method:-

Wash glutinous rice and soaked for at least 3 hours, or overnight.

Put steamer to boil at medium heat. Drained the glutinous rice and place onto cloth(I used cloth diaper) top with 2 screw pine leaf and cover. Steam for about 30-45 minutes or until glutinous rice are cooked(grains looked clear).-(Basuh beras pulut dan rendam selama 3 jam atau semalaman. Panaskan kukusan diatas api sederhana. Toskan beras pulut dan letakkan diatas kain dengan 2 helai daun pandan dan tutup kukusannya. Kukusa selama 30-45 minit atau sehingga beras pulut masak.-pulut nampak clear)

Separate 3/4 cup coconut milk in a small bowl, put the remaining coconut milk in a pot, add sugar and salt and bring to boil on medium low heat.Add 2 pandan leaves in coconut milk mixture, stir frequently until sugar dissolve. Remove from heat. Put steamed glutinous rice in a pot that has cover, add coconut milk to glutinous rice, stir quickly and well. Cover it for 15 minutes.-(Asingkan 3/4 cawan santan didalam mangkuk kecil dan lebihannya masukkan kedalam periuk, gula dan garam dididihkan diatas api sederhana. Masukkan daun pandan dan kacau hingga gula larut. Angkat dari api dan masukkan pulut yang sudah dikukus tadi, gaul secepat mungkin  dan tutup selama 15 minit.)

For the balance 3/4 cups coconut milk, add rice flour and 1/4 tsp salt in it and mix well. Bring to boil on medium low heat, stir frequently until the mixture becomes thick. Remove from heat and set aside for topping.

Put glutinous rice in a plate, top with prepared coconut cream and serve with ripe mangoes.-(Santan yang 3/4 cawan tadi masukkan tepung beras dan garam dan gaul rata. Didihkan sebentar diatas api sederhana dengan selalu dikacau hingga pekat. Angkat dan ketepikan untuk disiram diatas pulut nanti. Letak pulut diatas piring dan tuangkan santan tadi dan makan dengan mangga yang sudah masak dan manis.)
