Two of my favourite desserts are tapioca (sago) served with a palm sugar syrup and coconut cream or this, black sticky rice served with mango, a squeeze of lime and coconut cream.
You will need to start it the day before to allow the rice to soak, but apart from that nuisance it comes together easily.

I double this because there is a chronic fear in this house we might run out of food. It makes a fair amount but it means there’s some left for the next day.
