Coconut Thai Rice image

I think this recipe came from Canadian Living magazine, but am not sure. The whole meal (which is comprised of Recipe #239788, Recipe #239892, Recipe #239789 and Recipe #239791) embodies the Thai tradition of combining all the five tastes: sweet, hot, sour, salty and bitter in one meal.
