Sticky white rice and guava
- 1 cup white sticky rice, soaked in water overnight, drained
- 800ml coconut cream
- 80g palm sugar
- 1/4 fresh coconut
- 4 guavas, peeled and halved
You can use tinned guava if you can't get the fresh variety. Alternatively, use pineapple, poached tamarillos or mango.
Method
Place the rice, coconut cream and sugar in a heavy-based saucepan. Simmer for 30 minutes, stirring constantly, until the rice is soft. Cover with a lid and allow to sit in a warm place for 30 minutes or until you are ready to serve. Remove coconut flesh from the hard shell and shave with a vegetable peeler. Serve sticky rice with two guava halves and a sprinkling of shaved coconut.
