So I love Sweet Sticky Rice with Mango. I first had it from a Malaysian restaurant in D.C. and whenever I come across it anywhere, I always order it and load up on it (doggie bags). Well thanks to the Instant Pot, I can make it myself.

So this is my mother’s famous Leche Flan recipe. If everything goes right, the texture is smooth, creamy and silky. And when you cut it, it’s like butter. My mother only used to make it for special occasions and it is truly a special occasion when you take a bite. 🙂

Filipino Adobo Chicken is so tender you’ll barely need a knife to cut it!
