Pandan Sticky Rice with Mango

There is something about the combination of mango and sticky rice that we never get tired of. This time I thought I could add one more element that I love and that is - Pandan! I added Pandan to the stcky rice and when combined with the coconut cream it produces an intoxicating fragrant match that perfectly complements with mango.
