The rice in this dish is cooked in a mixture of both coconut milk and water which gives it that slightly sweet and nutty flavor. Coconut milk is also jam-packed with nutrients and can help to lower cholesterol.

COCONUT RICE

Coconut milk lends rice both fat and sweetness, making it a richer, more mellow side than plain rice. To make it, simply replace half of the cooking water with coconut milk. It becomes a meal if you serve it with a fried egg, finely sliced pickled chiles with a little of their pickling liquid and some crushed peanuts. And if you wanted to turn it into dessert, serving it with ripe fruit like cut mango on top, you could stick to the recipe below, but bump the sugar up to 2 tablespoons.
