- Transfer cleaned sticky rice to a bowl. Add cold water enough to submerge rice, and cover with a lid or cling film. Soak for 3-4 hours or overnight.
- Once rice has soaked long enough, in a medium size rice cooker (that comes with a steamer basket), add water to the rice pot. Place steamer basket on top. Or use a wok, add enough water and place bamboo steamer on top. Then drain water from the sticky rice using a sieve to catch all of the rice grains.
- Transfer sticky rice into a muslin cloth and place rice in steamer basket and tie up. Tip: Water should not touch the rice steamer. Steam the rice for 30 to 40 minutes, or until rice is tender and translucent. Stir the rice occasionally to ensure all the grains cook evenly, and check water level (add more if required).
- In the meantime, to make the sweet coconut milk sauce, in a medium size saucepan add 1 cup coconut milk. On medium heat, bring to gentle simmer. Add sugar, stirring frequently until all of the sugar has dissolved and taste, it should sweet taste (adjust taste, add more sugar depending on preference). Ensure you do not boil the mixture. Once coconut milk is hot remove pot from heat and cover with a lid to keep mixture warm.

Set aside the rice, cover with cling film to let the coconut milk mixture get fully absorbed (between 35 to 40 minutes).
