Coconut Ginger Rice Ingredients
Method
Coconut Ginger Rice Directions
- 1
Prepare the Rice
Rinse the white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This removes excess starch and prevents the rice from being gummy.
- 2
Cook the Rice
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed white rice, coconut milk, and 1 cup of water. Add the salt and bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
- 3
Add the Ginger
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer for about 15 minutes. After 10 minutes, add the freshly grated ginger on top of the rice without stirring.

Finish Cooking
Continue to cook for the remaining 5 minutes, then remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, still covered, for another 5 minutes.

Prepare the Seasoning
In a small bowl, mix together the lime juice, orange juice, coconut oil, and pure olive oil.

Combine and Serve
Fluff the rice with a fork, then pour the juice mixture over the rice. Gently fold the rice to combine, ensuring the flavors are evenly distributed. Season with black pepper to taste and serve warm.
