Mango Sticky Rice

Like the oranges, Thai mangoes are also rather unique. Although there are a myriad varieties,  my favorite is the sweetest strain, Nam-Dok-Mai. Yellowish green on the outside, oblong, and with a flavor more subtle than that of larger green and red mangoes from the Phillipine of Mexico, it was and still is a favored practice of mine to peel one by hand and eat it greedily over a sink, juice dripping down my chin and all. This treat is made all the sweeter when accompanied by glutinous rice cooked in a mixture of sugar and coconut milk.
