A delightful and creamy coconut sweet rice recipe that is perfect for dessert or a sweet treat.
Rinse the glutinous rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
Rinsing the rice removes excess starch, preventing it from becoming overly sticky.
In a saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, and water. Bring to a gentle boil.
Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Reduce the heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15 minutes until the rice absorbs most of the liquid.
Keep the lid on to trap the steam and ensure even cooking.
Prepare a steamer with boiling water and line it with crumpled foil.
Crumpling the foil allows steam to circulate better around the rice.
Transfer the rice mixture to the steamer and steam for 20 minutes.
Check the water level in the steamer occasionally to ensure it doesn't run dry.
In a small saucepan, combine the brown sugar, salt, vanilla extract, and a splash of water. Bring to a gentle boil and cook until a syrup forms.
Stir constantly to prevent the sugar from burning.
Remove the rice from the steamer, fluff it with a fork, and drizzle with the syrup before serving.
Serve warm for the best flavor and texture.
