I am so upset with myself with this creation, should have done more homework before trying to be smart (now i feel like a fool).. BIL gave me a very nice mango, so i tot, maybe i should try to make sticky rice mango.. i ran out of white glutinous rice so i tot i could substitute with black ones.. a yellow face woman like me who doesnt have much knowledge or understanding in ingredients went ahead to soak the rice overnight, strain it, mix it with a little salt, VCO then steam it for 30 mins. while steaming i cook coconut milk with brown sugar and a pinch of salt, once the rice is ready, i pour in the coconut milk (leaving some to serve later) into the steamed rice, mix, cover with foil and let it rest for 40 mins. after i uncover, i found that the rice is not really soft and sticky, its grainy @@ then i found out, i suppose to mix both white and black in order for it to work ==! initially i wanna make it like sushi roll.. in order to save it and i couldnt wait for another day, i quickly went to make sushi rice. after the rice is cooked i mix it into the black glutinous rice. i failed terribly at making sushi rolls, had a hard time making a nice cut as the rice is too grainy @@ so instead of serving it like a sushi roll, i did the below plating.. i am still very upset with myself.. hubby say this plating is very nice de, what more to complaint? despite all the disaster i must say the coconut cream is very nice with the rice, mango and coconut.. next time i will do more research before trying to be a smarty pants.. haiz..
