Dessert sushi twist on mango sticky rice! Nori sushi wraps stuffed with sweet coconut rice and fresh sliced mango. Serve with optional date syrup!

Mango Sticky Rice Dessert Sushi by Flora & Vino

Are you accident prone?

The statement “I am” is an understatement when it comes to me.

A few weeks ago a pasta jar fell from my pantry and hit me squarely on the lip.

I was trying to grab a bag of shredded coconut from the top shelf and the pasta sauce was, well, in the way.

Luckily, after a quick icing the swelling went down and I was left with little more than a mark.

Then, yesterday, after months of haphazardly hanging my pots and pans on the hooks in my kitchen, a pan fell on my head.

Yeah, OK, it’s a little funny.

But let me tell you, it wasn’t funny yesterday when one of my Green Pans collided with my temple at an alarming speed.

I’m taking it upon myself to child-proof my kitchen this weekend and remove some of these work place hazards.

So until then, let’s try to avoid the kitchen catastrophes and make some dessert sushi, OK?

These Mango Sticky Rice Dessert Sushi are stuffed with sweet coconut rice and fresh sliced mango serves with fresh mint and date syrup!

Mango Sticky Rice Dessert Sushi Ingredients

This Mango Sticky Rice Dessert Sushi is a twist on mango sticky rice!

I’ve actually never had the classic Thai dish before, but I hear it’s incredible.

Sweet and sticky coconut rice topped with fresh cut mango– what’s not to love?

I was originally inspired to create dessert sushi from No Meat Athlete.

There’s a recipe for strawberry sushi in their cookbook that always intrigued me.

Instead of strawberry, I opted to use mango for a fresh take on summer sushi!

Here’s what you need to make dessert sushi:

  • sushi rice
  • filtered water
  • full-fat coconut milk
  • coconut sugar
  • Himalayan sea salt
  • ripe mango
  • Eden Food Nori Sheets
  • date syrup
  • fresh mint

That’s it!

The recipe begins with the sticky coconut rice.

You can prepare your sushi rice as you would normally, then mix in the coconut milk, coconut sugar, and sea salt.

The rice should smell coconut-y and sweet after mixing.

I like to let my rice mixture cool slightly before spreading onto the nori wraps.

While the rice is cooling, prepare, peel, and slice your mango.

I recommend cutting the mango into thin matchsticks for the best assembly.

Big chunks will fall out of the wraps!

Eden Food Nori Sheets act as the sturdy malleable base to hold all of this sweetness together.

I love to keep these wraps on hand for my at home sushi experiments.

They’re super versatile and easy to use, whether you enjoy them in classic sushi or something more avant garde.

These toasted nori sheets have a complex sweet, delicate aroma and flavor not found in other nori sushis.

They’re also fat-free, very low in sodium, and an excellent source of vitamin B12!

To assemble Mango Sticky Rice Dessert Sushi, first grab your sushi roller.

Place a nori wrap shiny side facing down.

Next, spread a thick (but not too thick) layer of the sticky rice on the nori wrap, pressing rice all the way to the edges.

Leave about 1″ bare at the top for rolling.

Once your rice is even, add in the sliced mango in an even layer about 2″ from the bottom (see pictures!).

Make sure you don’t add *too* much mango or the wrap won’t be able to roll.

Using wet fingers and the sushi roller, carefully roll up the mango sushi, closing off the top.

Carefully slice the roll into 8 rolls and you’re done!

If any sliced mango falls out in the process, just tuck it back inside and continue like nothing even happened.

Plate your sushi and serve immediately with a sprinkle of sesame seeds, fresh mint, and a drizzle of date syrup.

If you don’t have date syrup on hand, try using maple syrup or honey (if not vegan).

You can also serve these rolls plain!

However, I found a light drizzle of syrup to be really nice to enhance the sweetness of the rice and mango.

Enjoy them with chopsticks or just grab a roll with your hands!

Try making this Mango Sticky Rice Dessert Sushi something unique, sweet, and fruity.

They’re bright and appealing for any spread to enjoy solo or share!

Whip up these rolls for a fun date night dessert, sweet summer appetizer, or a fruity snack or breakfast.

The complex carbs and naturally occurring sugars make these rolls an excellent source of energy pre or post-workout!

If you want to add some more texture to the mix, try adding in unsweetened shredded coconut, chopped nuts, or chopped dates.

I like my sushi with a drizzle of date syrup and a light sprinkling of fresh mint.

Enjoy!

Description

Dessert sushi twist on mango sticky rice! Nori sushi wraps stuffed with sweet coconut rice and fresh sliced mango. Serve with optional date syrup!


Ingredients

RICE

  • 1 cup sushi rice
  • 1 1/2 cups filtered water
  • 1/4 cup full-fat coconut milk
  • 4 TBSP coconut sugar
  • pinch of Himalayan sea salt

SUSHI

  • 1 to 2 ripe mango, peeled and thinly sliced
  • 4 sheets Eden Food Nori Sheets
  • date syrup (optional)
  • fresh mint (optional for aesthetics)
  • sesame seeds

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, bring sushi rice and water to a boil. Lower the heat to la simmer and cover. Simmer until water is completely absorbed and rice is tender – about 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and allow to stand with the lid on for 10 minutes more.
  2. In the meantime, add coconut milk, coconut sugar, and sea salt to a small saucepan and heat over medium heat stirring occasionally until sugar and salt are dissolved. Set aside until read to use.
  3. Once the rice is done, add the coconut milk mixture and stir well to combine, completely coating the rice.
  4. Peel and slice the mango in thin slices for assembly.
  5. Time to roll your sushi. Grab your sushi mat and top with a sheet of nori, shiny side down. Using your hands dipped in water (to avoid sticking), pat a very thin layer of rice all over the nori, making sure it’s not too thick to roll.
  6. Next, arrange sliced mango.
  7. Start to roll the nori and rice over with your fingers, and once the mango is covered, roll the mat over to mold and compress the roll. Keep rolling in this fashion until it’s all rolled up. Dab some water onto the ending edge to seal the roll shut. Cut roll into 8 individual sushi slices. Repeat until all rice and filling is used up; about 3-4 rolls, depending on how much you stuff them.
  8. Serve immediately with optional date syrup and fresh mint. Best when fresh, though leftovers will keep for a day or two in the fridge.

    #ad// {NEW!} When everything else feels hard, this #ad// {NEW!} When everything else feels hard, this Thai Carrot Sweet Potato Soup feels easy. 🥕🍠🥣 It also tastes amazing and every warm spoonful is like a comforting embrace. This Thai Carrot Sweet Potato Soup is made on the stovetop with root vegetables and yellow curry paste blended with a spoonful of nut butter. I used a standing blender but you can also use an immersion blender to achieve the creamiest consistency.

I love topping my soup with cilantro, @edenfoods Tamari Roasted Almonds, and @edenfoods Hot Pepper Sesame Oil. 

@edenfoods Tamari Roasted Almonds are infrared roasted organic almonds with complimentary organic tamari soy sauce. They’re a delicious snack packed with protein and fiber. You can enjoy them on their own, added to trail mix, on salads and bowls, or…on soup! 
 
@edenfoods Hot Pepper Sesame Oil is a delicious unrefined expeller pressed toasted sesame oil that is infused with hot red chili peppers. Friends, this stuff is HOT! Just a *drop* adds a big kick to your dressings, marinades, stir-fries, etc. If you have a wild side, add a drop or two to your soup bowl for a little extra heat! 

Feel free to add your favorites, like roasted chickpeas, green onion, and sesame seeds.
