This is a nice accompaniment to Vegetable Thai Green Curry or other spicy dishes.

SERVES 2 (change servings and units)

Ingredients

1 cup basmati rice
3/4 cup coconut cream
3/4 cup water
2-3 whole cloves (optional)

Directions

1
Wash the rice a few times. I do this by filling a bowl with rice and water and stirring it around, then drain the water and repeat. Repeat until the water is clear, this removes a lot of the surface starch on the rice and prevents it becoming too sticky.
2
Put all the ingredients into a saucepan and bring to a boil. Stir the rice and turn the heat to low. At this point you must put the lid on the saucepan and allow to simmer for 15 minutes.
3
After 15 minutes turn the heat off and leave on the hob for a further 10-15 minutes. This allows the rice to finish cooking and also cool a little before serving.

Made for Make it Healthier tag game. I used Low-Fat Coconut Cream (Or Milk) Substitute in this to bring the fat down from 22.4g per serving to 7.2g with Sat fat of 2.7g This was great. I added the cloves and found it gave a nice flavor without being overpowering.
