Sticky Cheesy Rice

Want to make something other than fried rice or curd rice from that leftover rice. Try this sticky rice recipe. It is the rice equivalent of mac and cheese. You can make it with some veggies on the side or with some chicken grilled on the side. If you just want to eat this as a meal simply add some  veggies like broccoli, mushrooms etc. into this it directly. Then it becomes a close cousin of Risotto.
