Thai Mango Coconut Rice

I always order this at my favorite Thai restaurant in St. George... it's amazing. I decided to be a copy cat. This tastes just as good.

1 cup uncooked sticky rice (I used Jasmine)
1-2 ripe mangos, cut in slices
1 can coconut milk
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 tsp salt
2 tsp. coconut flavoring
1 tsp. vanilla
2 tsp. cornstarch dissolved in 2 Tbsp water


Prepare the rice as directed on the package. In a saucepan combine the coconut milk, brown sugar, salt coconut flavoring, and vanilla. Cook over medium heat for 5 minutes. Add the dissolved cornstarch and stir until thickened and smooth. When thickened, remove from heat. (You don't want to boil the sauce or you will lose the good coconut flavor) Add more sugar if desired.


To serve, spread a layer of rice on a plate. Pour coconut sauce, and top with sliced mangos.

Yum.
