 2 ¾ cups milk
 1 cup coconut milk
 1 tbsp butter
 1 ⅓ cups arborio rice
 ¼ cup white sugar

 ¼ tsp vanilla extract
 ¼ cup finely diced mango
 1 pinch Chinese five spice powder
1

Beat 2 tablespoons milk with egg yolk in a small bowl. Set aside.

Combine 2 3/4 cups milk and coconut milk in a saucepan over medium heat. When mixture just begins to steam, reduce heat to low.
