Ingredients

5 servings

2 cups jasmine or long-grain rice
1 (14-ounce) can coconut milk
1 cup water
1/2 tsp fine sea salt
1 to 2 teaspoons white granulated sugar (optional*)

Instructions

Thoroughly rinse the rice in a fine mesh strainer until the water runs clear.
Add the rice, coconut milk, water, sea salt and sugar (if using) to a large saucepan and stir to combine. Cook over medium-high heat until the rice reaches a boil. Give the rice a quick stir, turn the heat to low, cover with a lid, and cook undisturbed for 15 minutes. Turn off the heat, and let the rice rest undisturbed for 10 minutes. Uncover and fluff the rice with a fork.
Serve immediately and enjoy!
