I just made this, and like another person said the coconut left a bad aftertaste, too much coconut and not enough mango. Now I'm going to the local Chinese shop and buying something with a tasty sauce so the rice doesn't go to waste.

I looked over the reviews before I made this recipe and didn't quite understand why so many bad review?? The only thing I can come up with, is you need to cook it exactly the way it states. I thought this rice was perfect and would go with any dish. It had a touch of the tropics. Another person said it tasted like a rice pudding. That sounds like they used sweetened condensed coconut milk instead of unsweetened like it states. All I have to say, super simple super yummy!!!!!
Great sidedish

Usually I really like all of Paula's reciepes. I thought we were going to enjoy this one, but we didn't at all. This reciepe took alot more than 2/3 cup of water. The coconut milk left a bad aftertaste. This was my first time eating mango and I didn't care for it either.
Delicious!

This rice was absolutely delicious! I loved the creaminess of the rice and the coconut flavor paired with the mango. I was able to reheat the leftovers in the microwave the next day without getting that usual leftover dry rice texture.

This was an outstanding dish. I really enjoyed it. But my mango was overriped so I didn't get the pretty squares like Paula did. I am going to keep picking mangos until I pick the right one.
Great Mango Rice

I saw the other reviews on the rice before making it and was a bit nervous about doing it. I used jasmin rice and added about a teaspoon of sugar and unsweetened coconut flakes to the rice with the mango. Do not simmer the rice, continue cooking on the same heat level for about 10 min. more than the recipe calls for , until you see that all the liquid has been absorbed. Not mush at all. Great mango/coconut taste. Its a keeper for me, my husband asked for seconds on this rice.
Absolutely Terrible!!!

I made this dish without having an reviews to refer to (won't do that again) because I love Paula Deens recipes. We love rice, mango and coconut but this recipe tastes like an undercooked rice pudding. I added more water and kept cooking it slowly as it states but it never cooked through. Reminded me of vanilla soy milk taste too. Never again and what a waste of a good mango!!! Sooooo bad we just tasted it and threw all of the rest away!!!
RICE PUDDING!!!

I loved this rice dish! It was simple to make and the mango was a nice summery addition. I paired it with chicken but will try the fish that was featured on the same episode next time. I needed to use more water to get the rice to finish cooking, though. I have added this one to my collection!
Fantastic!

This rice dish is a very nice side that will be perfect with many summer meals. I was expecting it to taste mostly like coconut, however the coconut flavor was very delicate. The mango was a perfect addition. Will be making this quite often this summer to go along with grilled fish or Jamaican jerk chicken.
Not that impressed

Didn't like the rice as much as the fish, though the mango was really good. I think the coconut milk may bit over the top. But don't be shy about using lots of mango as it's quite tasty in the rice. I used frozen mango (thawed it first). Probably won't make the rice again, though the fish is a keeper.
delicious but delicate

Was not liked by the rest of the table (7,8 & 66). I was asked not to put fruit in the vegetables in the future...but I liked it. The mango does become a bit acidic so might not be for a acid-sensitive tummy.
