Easy Coconut Rice Recipe #365310
Spicy Nigerian rice dish. Actual cooking time depends on the type of rice being used. I am a huge fan of basmati rice but other types will do. Instead of chicken stock, vegetable stock can be used.
As an added element, you can add steamed vegetables 5 minutes before the rice is fully cooked.
