Coconut Rice
Say goodbye to boring rice! I’ve always loved coconut rice at restaurants and never really thought to try making it. I would have done it so much sooner if I had only known how simple it is!
Just follow the instructions on your rice package and replace 2/3 of the water or broth with coconut milk! That’s it! It comes out SO rich and creamy.
The rice I used called for 1 ½ cup of liquid per 1 cup dry rice, so I used 1 cup coconut milk and ½ cup water. Just make sure you check the ratio for the rice you choose to use.
I recommend serving this as a side to my sweet potato chicken curry, cashew curry salmon, cashew chicken, or honey sesame shrimp.
Recipe makes 2 servings
Ingredients
½ cup (90g) long-grain white rice (Jasmine works great)
¾ cup coconut milk (light or full-fat)
¼ cup water
Directions
Just add all ingredients to a pot, cover, and boil.
Stir occasionally and keep cooking until rice has absorbed liquid.
That’s it! Serve with literally anything, but I love it with Asian-inspired meals.
