1
Rinse the Jasmine Rice
In a fine mesh sieve, rinse 1 cup of jasmine rice under cold running water. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming sticky.
2
Combine Ingredients
In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed jasmine rice, 1 cup of coconut milk, 1 cup of water, and 1 tsp of salt.
3
Bring to a Boil
Place the saucepan over medium-high heat and bring the mixture to a boil, stirring occasionally.
4
Simmer
Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is tender.
5
Fluff the Rice
After the cooking time, remove the saucepan from heat and let it sit, covered, for an additional 5 minutes. Then, remove the lid and fluff the rice gently with a fork.

6
Prepare Garnish
Chop 1/4 cup of fresh cilantro or parsley and set aside.
7
Serve
Scoop the coconut jasmine rice into a serving bowl, sprinkle with chopped cilantro or parsley, and serve with lime wedges on the side for squeezing over the rice.
