Ingredients
  

  • 1½ cups Jasmine rice
  • 13 oz can of coconut milk unsweetened
  • 1 cup water
  • ¾ tsp salt
  • 4 Tbsp brown sugar
  • 2 large limes zested and juiced

Instructions
 

  • In a liquid measuring cup, add in the coconut milk and additional water, whisk together and pour into a pot. Place on the stovetop and stir occasionally while waiting to boil. Once the liquid is boiling add in the salt and the rice, then turn the temperature down to simmer for 15-20 minutes. Occasionally stir the rice in the pot so it doesn't stick to the bottom while cooking.
  • You will know when the rice is done by the liquid being almost absorbed by the rice. Add in the brown sugar, lime zest and the juice of one of the limes. Stir to combine. Taste the rice to see if you would prefer to add in more lime juice. Serve immediately.
