It was really good. I didn’t make any changes other than using a rice maker.
I was super skeptical at the cooking instructions; add rice to the cold water/coconut milk?? But! Followed! This totally worked! This was amazing! It was a bit sweet – even using unsweetened coconut milk – but if served with a spicy main dish, would compliment beautifully!! Garnished with fresh, chopped cilantro. Will keep and make again! Thanks SILVREZS!
We make this all the time. My kids love it. The only change is we just throw everything in a rice cooker and let it work its magic. Comes out perfect!
Tried to take a pic of the finished product but was all gone by the time I found my phone for the pic!! LOVE LOVE LOVE it! So easy to make and is a real winner in our home 🙂
Great, easy recipe. Whole family loved it. Went great with coconut tilapia.
This was a big hit! Very delicious! Made as recipe written.
Easy and quick… I liked this my marinated Ahi Tuna steak… gives a nice, Thai-like flavor.
I was looking for a side dish to compliment my Thai chicken recipe and this fit the bill perfectly. Had to adjust the sugar and salt to taste, but the toasted coconut topping put this over the top! I can’t wait to make it again.
Great recipe! For more coconut flavor I added unsweetened shredded coconut I’ve also put some pineapple in there. Gives it a little tangy flavor.
My family keeps asking for this recipe! We use it for stir fry, curry, sweet and sour chicken, or even just by itself! We love what a perfect compliment it is to a spicy dish! I can never seem to make enough! I am thinking about making it into a sweet dish sometime by adding sweetened condensed milk, pecans, and golden raisins!
Perfect mildly coconut flavored rice!!! Thank you
Used less sugar and it’s delish!
The flavor was excellent but the consistency of the rice was crunchy! I cooked exactly according to the recipe.
I cook a lot of rice, but this did not work out for me. The rice took forever to cook and was mushy. Next time I will cook the rice as I normally do, then cook the coconut milk, sugar and salt separately and then incorporate.
This was the best rice I ever had!!
This was super easy to make and super delicious. I did not change the recipe at all except I added a little bit of margarine before serving.
I am asian and have been cook rice my entire life. I eyeball measurements of everything and never use a rice cooker. Some how I burned the heck out of this recipe. I think it must be the sugar.
I did not have jasmine rice so just used white. This turned out perfect. What a great rice recipe.
Exactly what was expected. Thank you.
I made this exactly as posted and it was delicious! Not overly sweet and nice and creamy.
Perfect every time
