How to cook deliciously - Coconut Lime Rice
1. Stage
Rinse the rice: Pour rice into a fine-mesh sieve and thoroughly rinse it in the sink, moving your hands through the rice until the water appears mostly clear, about 1 minute. (It will never appear 100% clear, just do the best you can!)
2. Stage
Stir the coconut milk: In a large measuring cup, add coconut milk and water and stir to break up any large clumps of coconut fat (a few small clumps are okay).
3. Stage
Bring the rice to a boil: In a medium-sized 3-quart pot, add the coconut-water mixture, rice, and salt. Set the pot on medium-high heat and bring it to a rolling boil.
4. Stage
Simmer the rice: Stir the rice with a wooden spoon, scraping any rice grains at the bottom of the pot. Reduce the heat to low, then simmer, covered, for 20 minutes.
5. Stage
Finish the rice: Turn the heat off and let stand, covered, for 10 minutes. Use a fork to fluff the rice and stir in cilantro and lime juice to taste.
6. Stage
Serve: Enjoy hot or let cool to room temperature before serving with lime wedges on the side.
7. Stage
Storage and reheating: Store coconut rice in the fridge for up to 3 days in the fridge in an airtight container. To reheat, place rice in a microwave-safe bowl and break up any large chunks with a fork. Sprinkle with 1 teaspoon of water, then cover with a damp paper towel and microwave for 1 1/2 minutes to 2 minutes until warmed through. Did you love the recipe? Give us some stars below!
