Rinse the jasmine rice two to three times under cold water until the water runs clear. Put the rice in the rice cooker with the coconut milk and the water. Add a pinch of salt and the bruised lemongrass stalk.
Turn the rice cooker on and let the rice cook. The rice cooker will automatically switch to the keep-warm setting once the rice is done. Remove the lemongrass stalk afterwards.
Slice the chicken breasts into thin strips. Mix them in a bowl with the soy sauce, fish sauce, lime juice, garlic, ginger and a teaspoon of brown sugar. Let this marinate for 10 minutes.
Heat a splash of oil in a wok or frying pan over high heat. Fry the chicken pieces for about 5 to 7 minutes until cooked through and golden brown. Stir regularly.
Peel the mango and cut the flesh into thin slices or cubes. Slice the spring onions into rings and roughly chop the cilantro.
Spoon the coconut rice onto plates or into deep bowls. Top with the cooked chicken and arrange the mango alongside. Sprinkle with spring onion, cilantro and toasted sesame seeds. Serve immediately with a lime wedge.

Cooking mode Prevents your screen from going to sleep

The coconut rice is the heart of this dish. Cooking the rice in a mix of coconut milk and water gives it a creamy, lightly sweet flavor that pairs perfectly with the spicy chicken and the fresh mango. Taste and enjoy — it's that simple. This is a recipe you'll want to put on the table again and again.

A rice cooker makes this dish even easier. You turn it on, and while you fry the chicken and cut the mango, it takes care of the rest. No boiling over, no burnt bottom. Just perfect rice, every time. Smart cooking — that's quality in practice.
