Prepare your steamer. If using a bamboo steamer, line it with parchment paper or cheesecloth. Place the drained glutinous rice in the steamer basket. Bring 1 1/2 cups of water to a boil in the pot below the steamer. Once boiling, place the steamer basket over the boiling water, cover, and steam for 20 to 25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and translucent. Remove from heat and set aside, keeping warm.

While the rice is steaming, prepare the coconut sauce. In a medium saucepan, combine the full-fat coconut milk, granulated sugar, and salt. Heat over medium-low heat, stirring constantly, until the sugar is fully dissolved and the sauce is gently simmering. Do not boil vigorously. Remove from heat.

Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large mixing bowl. Pour about 1 cup of the warm coconut sauce over the sticky rice. Gently fold the sauce into the rice until it is evenly coated and absorbed. Cover the bowl and let it sit for 10 to 15 minutes to allow the rice to fully absorb the sauce and become even stickier and more flavorful.

While the rice is resting, peel and slice the ripe mangoes. Arrange the warm sticky rice on serving plates. Place the sliced mango next to the rice. Drizzle the remaining coconut sauce generously over both the rice and mango.
