Rice pudding with corn

                Today I got beautiful fresh corn that’s in season from my supermarket.   I decided to make another Thai dessert called Khaw Neaw Pake Khaw pod which means sticky rice pudding with corn.  This is a very easy dessert that you can make from your home.  This dish is one dessert that you can find from street food venders in Thailand.  The combination between the sweetness of sugar and a bite of sweet corn and the saltiness from coconut cream topping that makes this dish interesting!!!

Ingredients : 4 servings

¼ cup uncooked sticky rice

1 ¾ cup water

6 tbsp. sugar

1 fresh corn about ½  cup

 1 tsp. corn starch

¾ cup coconut milk

½ tsp. salt

Cooking instructions

1.       Add water and sticky rice into a pot and cook in medium heat about 15 minutes then stir occasionally or until the rice is cooked.

2.       Add corn and sugar and stir it until mixed well then turn the heat off.

3.       In another sauce pan add coconut cream, 1 tsp. cornstarch and salt.  Stir it until mixed well. Turn the heat on and bring it to a boil then turn the heat off.

4.       Serve it by putting the sticky rice into a bowl first, then top with 3 tsp. coconut cream mixture. You can serve hot or at room temperature.
