Instructions
- Place the rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse thoroughly. Drain and set aside.
- Add the coconut oil to a medium sized saucepan over high heat. Once hot, add the rice and toast in the oil for 1 to 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
- Add the grated turmeric and continue to stir to combine.
- Pour the coconut milk and water into the pot, stir and bring to a boil. Once boiling, cover the pot with a lid, lower the heat to a low simmer and cook until rice has absorbed all of the liquid, about 10 to 15 minutes.
- Turn off the heat, add the salt and pepper and fluff the rice with a fork.
Notes
- Storing Leftovers: Leftover coconut rice can be stored in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 5 days.
- Freezing leftover rice: The high-fat content in this rice coming from coconut milk makes it an excellent candidate for freezing. Add the rice to an airtight container or freezer-safe bag and freeze for up to 4 months. Thaw in the fridge overnight before reheating and serving.
