Jackfruit with Floral Glutinous Rice

Enjoy a delightful Thai dessert fresh jackfruits with Floral Thai Glutinous Rice, garnished with fried mung beans. Slightly more pungent than mango sticky rice

Ingredient

  • 1/2 cup Floral Glutinous Rice
  • 1 Tbsp Pandan paste
  • 1/2 cup Coconut milk
  • 2 Tbsp white sugar
  • ~6-10 pods ripe jackfruit

Fried Mung Beans:

  • 1/4 cup mung beans
  • Cooking oil
  • Salt to taste

Method

  1. Add water until fully cover the rice. Add pandan paste, stir and mix evenly with rice. Steam for 25 mins turning white rice into green rice.
  2. Mix coconut milk, salt, sugar over medium heat until the mixture is smooth. Reserve 4 tbsp of this sauce for later.
  3. Combine cooked rice with coconut milk sauce. Rice will soak up the sauce as it cools, so add it in small sections and wait for it to absorb the liquid before adding more.
  4. Rinse mung beans and dry on a paper towel. Fry mung beans in coated oil pan with medium heat. Remove from heat when turns golden brown.
  5. Slice the fresh jackfruits pods in half lengthwise. Place a spoonful of green glutinous rice inside. Drizzle some of the reserved coconut sauce on top and garnish with mung beans!
