THAI MANGO GLUTINOUS RICE PUDDING [KHAO NGIAO]

Haven’t had enough of this delicious dessert while in Thailand? Yes. So, I prepared this to devour and also to share with Best Recipes May 2015 Event on ‘Desserts’.

This is a very easy to follow recipe shared by Agnes Chang in her book ‘Agnes Chang’s Tasty Temptations which I had in my collection of recipe books for years. Her recipe is a big portion to cook and I have reduced it to only a third just enough for my family. I didn’t want my hubby to eat too much of this especially after dinner….It may cause indigestion for some people.

Verdict - yummy-licious dessert that is not difficult to prepare in your own kitchen.
