EASY AND QUICK JASMINE JASMATI RICE WITH COCONUT MILK



Easy and Quick Jasmine Jasmati Rice With Coconut Milk image

We enjoy this very much-I like the Jasmati brand ( american Jasmine) since you don't have to rinse the rice. You can also buy fresh ginger ( inexpensive) -peel it, cut it into small chunks then freeze. You can use the frozen ginger as you need it!

Yield 1 people

Number Of Ingredients 6

1 1/2 cup cooked rice, 2-3 days old
1/2 cup thick coconut milk
1/2 water
10 slices of ginger
Pinch of salt
Olive oil

Steps:

  • Stir fry ginger with a tablespoon of olive oil in a small pot until fragrant. Add a pinch of salt, coconut milk and water to the pot and bring it to a boil. Cover the pot. Turn down the heat to low and let it simmer for about 10 to 15 minutes. Make sure you have just enough liquid to wet the rice. Add the rice to the pot. At this time, the rice will wet but not watery. Turn the heat to medium and stir the rice for 5 minutes, until the liquid dries off a little. The rice will be fluffy and moist but not overly dry when it's done.
