   While the rice is cooking, in another saucepan, heat 200ml of coconut milk with 100g of sugar and 1/4 teaspoon of salt over medium heat. Stir until the sugar dissolves and the mixture is warm, but not boiling. Remove from heat.

   Once the rice is cooked, transfer it to a large bowl. Pour the warm sweetened coconut milk over the rice and gently fold to combine. Cover and let it sit for 15 minutes to allow the rice to absorb the liquid and become sticky.

   While the rice is resting, prepare the spicy mango sauce. Peel and dice the mangoes. In a small bowl, combine the diced mangoes, minced ginger, chopped red chili pepper, remaining 200ml coconut milk, remaining 50g sugar, remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt, and lime juice. Mash gently with a fork to create a chunky sauce.
