Mango Sticky Rice (Ketan Mangga Thailand) Recipe

Image
One of my favorite dessert, Mango Sticky Rice or called Khao Niao Mamuang in Thai. Sweet sticky rice, sweet mango, with creamy savory coconut cream, it's just a really good combination. A must to eat whenever I visited Bangkok, and finally I made my own this weekend, thanks to Mark Wiens for the video about how to make Mango Sticky Rice. This recipe is adapted from his, I like the aroma of pandan in my sticky rice so I added some. Please note that you need to soak the glutinous rice for 5 - 8 hours before steaming. Actually there's another option to cook the glutinous rice in a rice cooker but I've not tried it yet so, I will update this post later. Anyway, you can also change the mango with durian (it really works).  Ingredients: 400 gr glutinous rice 250 ml coconut milk 100 gr sugar or less 1/2 tsp salt pandan leaves sweet mango Coconut Cream Sauce : 200 ml coconut milk 1/2 tsp salt or to taste 1 tsp cornstarch (optional) Watch video for the directions.

Resep: Sausage and Bean Sprout Omelette Recipe

I noticed that omelette is a very popular in Bangkok especially at street food vendors. Probably because it's cheap and fast. They use a bit more oil for frying the egg, the result is a crispy omelette, best with hot steamed white rice. From the classy egg only omelette to seafood, personally I think the most important ingredient is coriander leaves aka cilantro, or here we called it daun ketumbar ( wan sui ). Usually they put some on top of the omelette, even better with the garlic chili sauce. This dish is inspired by the street style omelette, with sausage and bean sprout, but feel free to add the other ingredients, also I posted about how to make the Thai Garlic Lime Chili Sauce on my previous blog post.  Ingredients : 2 eggs 1 tbsp water 1 sausage, sliced a hand full of bean sprout some coriander leaves salt and pepper to taste 3 tbsp cooking oil Directions : Crack the egg into a bowl, add in salt and pepper, mix, set a side Heat the pan on medium, pour the oil, stir fry the

Resep: Homemade Thai Iced Tea with Boba (Taiwanese Pearl) Recipe

Firstly, I know some of you asking about how did I get boba? Online store, very easy. The good one should be more expensive, I got mine around IDR 200k for 2 kilos, that's a lot. You won't need that much. Cook it on high heat, usually take me about 20 minutes. When it's done, drain from excess water, add in some simple syrup. Make your own syrup by heating 1:1 ratio of sugar and water. Second, Thai tea mix. I'm using this brand that I got from Grand Lucky supermarket. It's not an instant Thai tea mix, so you need to brew your own tea by adding it into boiling water, then strain using a strainer.  It's not hard but it will take few times, cooking the boba, brewing tea, and making simple syrup. Fresh milk is one that I do recommend instead of using condense milk though you don't have to make simple syrup if you're using condense milk as it's already sweetened. I don't really drink milk, and I definitely hate condense milk, but those are not the rea
