Coconut Rice Serves: 4 Difficulty:  Easy Prep Time: 5 Minutes Cook Time: ~30 Minutes This rice has a very light flavor and pairs well with other curry-flavored veggies or tofu. 1 cup rice, rinsed 1/4 cup diced onion 1 can (14oz) coconut milk 1/4 cup water 2 slices fresh ginger root 2 teaspoons curry powder 1/2 teaspoon salt In a medium saucepan, combine rice, onion, coconut milk, water, ginger, curry powder, and salt. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until done. Notes Basmati or jasmine rice gives this rice a subtle undertone. Use light coconut milk to make this a little healthier. Add some extra ginger, curry powder or cayenne pepper for an extra kick. A few teaspoons of ginger spice can substitute for fresh. Like most rice dishes, this freezes well.
