A simple yet delicious sticky rice recipe, perfect for any meal.
Combine the jasmine rice, coconut milk, and salt in a saucepan.
Using coconut milk adds a creamy texture and a subtle sweetness to the rice.
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Stirring occasionally prevents the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for 20 minutes.
Keep the lid on to trap the steam and ensure the rice cooks evenly.
After 20 minutes, remove the saucepan from the heat and let it sit, covered, for 5 minutes to finish steaming.
Letting the rice rest allows it to absorb any remaining liquid and enhances its texture.
Fluff the rice with a fork and serve warm.
Fluffing the rice separates the grains and makes it look more appealing.
