coconut rice recipe

Coconut rice is made all over the word and is prepared in many different ways. I enjoyed this dish in Hawaii and Mexico served with tropical fruit and fish.

Coconut Rice

Cups Jasmine Rice

Cup Coconut Cream

Honey Sugar (optional)

Teaspoon Sea Salt

Rinse the rice with cool water until the water runs clear.

Combine the rice, coconut cream, honey, salt and 2 cups of filtered water in a medium saucepan.

Bring the coconut rice to a boil, then cover and reduce heat to low.

Cook until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed, about 40 minutes.

Fluff the rice with a fork and cover and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving.

This recipe can be made in a rice cooker. Just add all the ingredients to the cooker and follow the rice cooker instructions.

Needing to use up some coconut milk and ended up making coconut rice and yellow rice. I used the stackable steamer and cooked both at the same time, one in each steamer.  They will go well with the pork ribs and shrimp from my mom. But they are also delicious on their own.

This is a delicious recipe that we use with so many things!  Make extra, freeze and use for all kinds of "bowls" ~ it will add a new dimension to your meal. :)

Delicious! So much so that just cooking 1 cup of rice is not enough, plus sometimes I just want to use up a whole can of coconut milk at once.  So I triple the recipe: 
3 cups Jasmine Rice
1 (13.5oz/398ml) can coconut milk
550 ml water
2 tsp organic chicken better than bouillon (already salted so no need to add salt or just use unsalted chicken broth if that's what you have and add salt 3/4-1 1/2 tsp salt).  

Thank you!

This rice was excellent: so fragrant, and with that wonderful coconut taste. I soaked and rinsed my rice thoroughly before starting, but still, it was a bit too chewy for our tastes. I took the suggested advice and added a bit more stock, and I also added some ghee, and this made a nice, soft, fragrant rice. We enjoyed it with a Jamaican Brown Stew Chicken. Delightful! I will be putting this rice into regular rotation in our household, as my whole family loves the notes of coconut to elevate a regular rice dish.
Nicely done! Highly recommended.

Wasn't feeling well and picked up a quick meal of prepackaged Asian braised beef tips. Wanted to add a little something to go with it. Found this recipe for ip coconut rice. Wow! Not only was this simple and easy to put together with a headache and vertigo but, this was super tasty too. Thank you so much. I will definitely be making this more. I doubled the recipe and used 1/2 tsp of salt total. Perfect accompanying side or alone.

So easy and delicious! A hit with the kids as well. I topped it with Island Chicken (cinnamon, chili, cumin rub and sauce- soy sauce, sriracha, and brown sugar). Keeping this one!

This is my go-to website for instant pot rice recipes, and this coconut rice does not disappoint! It’s warm comfort food in the winter, and nice in the summer with tilapia and mango salsa. :)

Recommend this recipe! Have made a few times!

Made this tonight for supper. So super easy and soooooooo delicious. Husband usually doesn't eat rice but he had a big serving of it with the sauce from the Huli Huli chicken (also made in the IP)
 and had coconut cream pudding for dessert. Made for a nice light supper on a hot summer's night.

Ever just get a late-night craving for rice?  No, just me. Well yay for Amy and Jacky’s coconut rice recipe. Easy coconut rice in just 15 mins.

Coconut basmati rice and kalbi ribs for dinner tonight. I doubled Jacky Guy+Amy’s coconut rice recipe because it’s my favorite way to make this delicious rice. Yum!!!

I have been using my Breville Pressure Cooker a great deal. I have made this delicious rice many times, I love it, and so do the friends and family who have tried it. And it is so easy to make! Thank you!

This recipe is delicious. This is one of the only things that I can eat because my a lot of foods upset my stomach since recovering

A fantastic recipe - the rice is perfect and flavored just right.  I double the recipe and will freeze half for another night!

Perfect! Perfect! Perfect! Delicious! I did also use a higher quality Thai Jasmine Rice. Thank you for this recipe!
