Transform your table with this delightful coconut rice! It’s creamy and subtly sweet, making it an ideal companion to any spicy main dish and a breeze to prepare in just 30 minutes for restaurant-like results at home.
Start by gathering all your ingredients ready for action.
Rinse your jasmine rice thoroughly under cold water. Use your fingers to help wash away the excess starch. Continue until the water runs clear.
In a saucepan, mix the rice, coconut milk, water, sugar, and salt. Give it a good stir to dissolve the sugar completely.
Bring this fragrant mix to a gentle boil over medium heat. Cover the pan, lower the heat to simmer, and let it cook undisturbed for around 11 minutes. Turn off the heat and let it steam until perfectly tender, about 10 minutes. Finally, add coconut oil and stir lightly.
Serve up your delightful coconut rice warm and enjoy every spoonful!
