Coconut rice is a fragrant and flavorful side dish that pairs well with many different types of cuisine. To make it, rinse 2 cups of rice and add it to a pot with 1 can of coconut milk and 1 3/4 cups of water. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer for 18-20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Fluff the rice with a fork and serve hot. You can also add some shredded coconut or chopped nuts for extra texture and flavor.
