Description

Rice goes sweet (and savory) in this creamy coconut rice, made with coconut milk, a little sugar and a bit of salt!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 11/2 cups jasmine rice, rinsed and drained
  • One 14-ounce can coconut milk
  • 1/4 cup sugar
  • 2 teaspoons kosher salt

TO FINISH:

  • One 14-ounce can coconut cream (substituting with coconut milk is fine), shaken or stirred to combine
  • 1/2 to 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon sugar

Instructions

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine the rice, coconut milk, 1-3/4 cups water, sugar and salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring occasionally.  Reduce the heat to medium-low, so the liquid is barely bubbling, cover and simmer until the rice is cooked and liquid is mostly absorbed, about 18 to 20 minutes. Remove from the heat and use a fork to fluff the rice.
  2. Add about 1/4 of the can of coconut milk, salt and sugar, and fluff again.  Taste to ensure you don’t need more salt. Cover and let stand for 5 minutes.
