Рецепт Taro & Sticky Rice with Coconut Cream
When we dine out I guess I told a lot of times our first go to cuisine is Japanese, but what’s the next option if Japanese is unavailable? Well it will be Vietnamese and we do love their noodle dishes but Vietnamese is not just about noodles they also have great desserts and one of it is this one Taro & Sticky Rice with Coconut Cream. Last time we dined into one we ordered this dessert and I told my wife, “We will so make this at home”, I know it’s easy as it has a similar concept to a Philippine dish called “Guinataang Halo Halo”. So several weeks later here I am making my own version at home and here is how it goes.
- Ingredients (Rice Pudding)
- 2/3 cup glutinous rice (white, black or mix)
- 1 large taro, cut into cubes
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 4 cups water
- 1 cup coconut milk
- Ingredients (Coconut Cream Sauce)
- 1 cup coconut milk
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/4 cup sugar (or more, adjust to your liking)
- 1 tsp cornstarch
- pinch of salt
Method
1. In a pot boil the water, once boiling add the taro and cook for 15 minutes or until taro is tender. Scoop out and set aside the taro leaving liquid in the pot. Add the coconut milk sugar and salt bring it again to a boil.
2. Rinse glutinous rice then place it in the boiling mixture, turn heat to low then cook rice for 15-20 minutes or until rice is soft, occasionally stir to prevent rice sticking from the bottom of the pot.
3. Turn heat off, there should be a small amount of liquid remaining don’t worry about this as the rice will absorb this reaming water.
4. In a saucepan combine all coconut cream sauce ingredients, bring it to a boil then let it thicken. Turn heat off.
5. Scoop some rice pudding into a bowl, top with several pieces of taro then pour some coconut cream sauce on top.
