Ingredients

  • 1 cup of rice (preferably jasmine rice)
  • 1 1/2 cups of water
  • 1 cup of coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 1/4 teaspoon of salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon of vanilla extract

Equipment

  • Stir the rice occasionally to prevent it from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
  • For a creamier texture, use full-fat coconut milk.
  • You can also add some toasted coconut flakes or chopped nuts to the top of the sweet coconut rice for some extra texture and flavor.
