Description

Coconut rice is a delicious and aromatic dish that is popular in many countries, especially in Asia. This recipe is a quick and easy way to make coconut rice using a microwave. It is perfect for those who are short on time and want to have a tasty and filling meal.

Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is about 5 minutes. It mainly involves measuring the ingredients and washing the rice.

Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is about 20 minutes. However, this may vary depending on the wattage of your microwave.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup of white rice
  • 1 cup of coconut milk
  • 1 cup of water
  • 1/2 teaspoon of salt

Equipment

  • Microwave-safe bowl with a lid
  • Measuring cup
  • Spoon

Method

  1. Rinse the rice in a fine-mesh sieve under cold running water until the water runs clear. This will remove excess starch and prevent the rice from becoming sticky.
  2. In a microwave-safe bowl, combine the rice, coconut milk, water, and salt. Stir well.
  3. Cover the bowl with a lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap. Make sure it is tightly sealed.
  4. Place the bowl in the microwave and cook on high for 10 minutes.
  5. After 10 minutes, remove the bowl from the microwave and give it a quick stir.
  6. Cover the bowl again and microwave on medium for another 10 minutes.
  7. Once the rice is cooked, let it sit for a few minutes before fluffing it up with a fork.
  8. Your coconut rice is now ready to serve.

Notes

  • Make sure to use a microwave-safe bowl with a lid or microwave-safe plastic wrap. This will prevent the rice from drying out and ensure that it cooks evenly.
  • If you prefer your rice to be more creamy, you can adjust the ratio of coconut milk to water. For example, you can use 1 1/2 cups of coconut milk and 1/2 cup of water.
  • If you want to add some extra flavor to your coconut rice, you can add some chopped herbs, such as cilantro or parsley, or some toasted coconut flakes.

Recipe Tips

  • If you are using a high-wattage microwave, you may need to adjust the cooking time. Check the rice after 8 minutes to see if it is cooked through.
  • If you find that your rice is still undercooked, add a little bit more water or coconut milk and microwave for another 2-3 minutes.
  • Leftover coconut rice can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. You can reheat it in the microwave or on the stovetop.
