Coconut rice
Ingredients
- 300g/10½oz rice
- 170ml/6fl oz coconut milk
- 170ml/6fl oz stock
- salt, to taste
- sugar, to taste
- pepper, to taste
Method
- Wash the rice well under cold running water to remove any excess starch and transfer to a saucepan which has a tight-fitting lid.
- Mix the coconut milk and stock together and pour it over the washed rice.
- Cover the saucepan with a lid and bring the rice to boil on high heat.
- Once vigorously boiling, change to a low heat, cover with the lid and allow to simmer for 10 minutes, or until the water level is the same as the top of the rice.
- At this point, turn the heat completely off and allow to rest for a further 10 minutes, keeping the lid on at all times. Use a wooden spoon to fluff up the rice before serving. Add salt, sugar and pepper to taste.
