Using Leftovers >

Day 274 (30th May)

Oop, not the ice cream leaking :D

I made mango sticky rice mochi! I had some leftover sticky rice from a few days ago, so I made this mochi. I saw a video on it, so it's not an original idea, but here is what I did:

Recipe (for one serving)

Ingredients:

• One-fourth cup of cooked sticky rice (if your rice is not sweetened, add about half a tablespoon of your sweetener of choice and mix it well)

• One tablespoon of cornstarch

• One scoop of vanilla ice-cream

• A few cut slices of mango

• Other fruits (to your liking)

Instructions:

• Dust your hands and the countertop with cornstarch.

• Flatten the sticky rice in a circular shape.

• Feel free to use up to two additional teaspoons of cornstarch to make sure the mochi does not stick.

• Add a scoop of vanilla ice cream to the middle of the mochi.

• Engulf the ice cream with the mochi.

• Place the mochi seam-side down in the freezer for about 15 minutes to set.

• Top with freshly sliced mango and other fruits of choice.

• Enjoy!

I think this is a brilliant way to use up sticky rice. :D You can fill it with different types of ice cream to make a different version.
