Mango Coconut Rice Recipe - A Delightful Southeast Asian Dish

Ingredients

Servings:
6
  • 1 cup Jasmine rice
  • 1 cup Coconut milk
  • 1 cup Mango, diced (Use ripe mango for best flavor)
  • 1 tablespoon Sugar (Adjust based on sweetness preference)
  • 1 teaspoon Salt
  • 1 tablespoon Lime juice (Freshly squeezed)

Instructions

5 steps

  1. Rinse the rice

    Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear.

    This helps remove excess starch for fluffier rice.
  2. Cook the rice

    Combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, and salt in a pot. Bring to a boil.

    Stir occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Simmer

    Reduce heat, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes until rice is cooked.

    Do not lift the lid during cooking to retain steam.
  4. Fluff the rice

    Remove from heat and let it sit for 5 minutes. Fluff the rice with a fork.

    Letting it sit helps absorb any remaining moisture.
  5. Add mango

    Gently fold in the diced mango, sugar, and lime juice if using.

    Serve warm or at room temperature.
