Coconut Coriander (Cilantro) Lime Rice

By Nagi | RecipeTin Eats

A classic coconut rice recipe, with the added freshness of lime and cilantro/coriander (can be omitted if you wish). I served this with Hawaiian Marinated Chicken (together, these recipes use 1 standard can of coconut milk). This makes enough rice to serve 4 as a side.

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups long grain rice, uncooked ((jasmine is great too))
• 3/4 cup coconut milk
• 1 1/2 cups water
• 1/2 tsp white sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/4 cup finely chopped coriander / cilantro leaves
• 1 - 2 tbsp fresh lime juice ((adjust to your taste))

Instructions

1. 1

   Place Rice ingredients in a medium saucepan over medium heat with the lid on. Bring to simmer then turn down to medium low.

2. 2

   Cook for 15 to 18 minutes, or until liquid has been absorbed. Remove from heat, leaving the lid on, and rest for 10 minutes.

3. 3

   Fluff rice with a fork then stir through coriander/cilantro and lime juice. Adjust lime juice to taste.
