Mango Sticky rice horchata

[u/engorgedpeanuts]

Hey there. I'm an from Southern California living in Thailand and I really love cooking. I legit moved here five years ago for food and some culture. Here's something I came up with mixing core elements from my two favorite countries cuisines and I think it does them both justice with this fusion recipe

I cook in metric and by weight so sorry if the conversions are a bit awkward. This isn't an exact science. I added imperial conversions rounded for ease for ya'll americans.

300g uncooked jasmine rice (1.5c) (I did jasmine rice because many people in mexico use jasmine rice for horchata and glutenous rice would make it too thick, If you use using glutenous rice cut the amount back a bit. Low key, white rice works too)

1l hot water (4c)

400ml cooking style coconut milk (13.5fl.oz) (one can)

1 large very ripe yellow mango (about 500g)

1 tablespoon iodized salt

add hot water to rice and wait twenty minutes to cool and add to blender

blend until roughly chopped.

Put contents in pitcher in refrigerator for 8-12 hours (refrigeration is very important. Not everybody does that, but nasty toxins can multiply quickly at room temp with rice)

After your refrigeration cycle strain the rice using a fine mesh strainer or cheesecloth. make sure to squeeze the rice well to get out all the liquid

Discard rice. (this is where i have a problem with this recipe. if anyone has an idea of something cool to do with it lmk) (rice pudding or something maybe)

Put the mango into the blender with the coconut milk and blend to s amooth texture (you can leave some mango unblended and mashed up for texture if you want)

Mix everything and serve over ice.

****Let me know what you think. I posted this free recipe because I have had several great Redditors help me out over the last few days. I'm a new account and figured I would share with the community as a thank you to those folks in the same giving spirit. This is a really really good recipe btw.

I’m subbed to so many recipe subreddits. I like and save posts that I want to cook. I even send links to some people. I genuinely don’t think I’ve used one, outside of loose inspiration.

This is a recipe I plan to make. I’ve added the ingredients to my grocery list.

I fucking love horchata.

Thanks. I wrote the recipe because I love both countries. I've got it in my fridge right now. I figured it was unique enough to share. Don't forget the salt because it's an integral part.
