What You'll Need

      1. 1 cup Thai rice 

      2. 1 1/2 cups water (divided)

      3. 4 to 5 tablespoons brown sugar

      4. 1/4 teaspoon salt

      5. 1 can coconut milk (good-quality, not "lite") 

      6. 1 to 2 ripe mangos

 How to Make It

1. Soak rice in 1 cup water for 20 to 30 minutes. Do not drain the rice.
2. Add 1/2 cup more water, plus 1/2 can coconut milk, salt, and 1 tablespoon brown sugar. Stir well.
3. Bring to a gentle boil, then partially cover with a lid (leaving some room for steam to escape). Reduce heat to medium-low, or just until you get a gentle simmer.
4. Simmer 20 to 30 minutes, or until coconut water has been absorbed by the rice. Turn off the heat, but leave the pot on the burner with the lid on tight. Allow to sit for 5 to 10 minutes.

1. To make the sauce, warm (do not boil) the rest of the can of coconut milk over medium-low heat (5 minutes). Add 3 tablespoons brown sugar, stirring to dissolve.
2. Taste-test sauce for sweetness, adding more sugar if desired. (Note that it will taste less sweet when added to the rice.)
3. Prepare mango by cutting it open and slicing into bite-size pieces
4. Scoop some warm rice into each serving bowl, then drizzle lots of the sweet coconut sauce over. It should look like an English pudding with custard sauce, with the rice swimming in sauce.
5. Arrange mango slices on the rice and drizzle over more sauce.

Note: For even saucier rice, prepare the mango. Once the sauce is warm in the saucepan, add several scoops of rice directly to the pan. Keep it in clumps, gently turning in the sauce to saturate all sides.  Transfer to serving bowls, then top with the mango and any remaining sauce.
