Coconut Rice

  • 1 cup rice
  • 1 cup coconut milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 1/4 tsp. salt
  • 1 tsp. cane sugar (optional)
  • 2 tbsp. unsweetened shredded coconut (optional)

Add rice, coconut milk, salt, sugar and coconut to a large saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Lower heat to a simmer and cover.

Simmer until water is completely absorbed and rice is tender – 10-25 minutes.

Remove from heat, fluff with a fork, put lid back on, and let rest for 10 minutes so the moisture redistributes.
