Coconut Lime Rice Recipe

Cooking Instructions

1. 1

   Rinse the Rice

   Start by rinsing the long-grain white rice under cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch and prevents the rice from becoming too sticky.

2. 2

   Combine the Ingredients

   In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, water, lime juice, lime zest, and salt. Stir gently to mix the ingredients.

3. 3

   Cook the Rice

   Bring the mixture to a boil over medium-high heat. Once it reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and let it simmer for about 15-20 minutes or until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

4. 4

   Fluff and Serve

   Once the rice is cooked, remove it from heat and let it sit covered for an additional 5 minutes. Then, fluff the rice with a fork. If desired, stir in fresh chopped cilantro for added flavor before serving.
