This is possibly my favorite food to eat right now. There is just something about the rich coconut with the sweet mangos and the rice with salt that I just love. We had this last night for dinner even though it's a Thai dessert. My dad taught me that sometimes it's good to eat dessert for dinner, besides I don't add the sugar to this recipe. Instead I just used a little ( maybe 1 TB) agave nectar. There are so many different versions of this dessert.
I just cooked the rice in the rice steamer since I don't have a traditional rice steamer. There was some left over water I had to pour out but it still turned out really good. You can also substitute sushi rice but it may not be as sticky .
Here is one easy recipe where you make the rice in a pot

also I found this site that I really like because it breaks down how much it cost to serve.

That recipe is a little different more like coconut rice with mangos instead of sticky rice with mangos. Both are probably good. The first is more traditional I think.
Here is one more link for this and more Thai recipes
