Asian Coconut Rice image

I tried so many different ways to duplicate my favorite restaurant's coconut rice after they went out of business. This one is perfect! Garnish with toasted coconut and chopped cilantro if you like.

I'm allergic to coconut, so I used almond milk instead. It was still delicious!

I didn't have lemongrass or ginger on hand, so I substituted lemon zest and garlic. It still turned out great!

I followed the recipe exactly and the rice turned out mushy. I'm not sure what went wrong.

This was the easiest coconut rice recipe I've ever tried. It came out perfect and was a great side dish for my chicken curry.

I'm not usually a fan of coconut rice, but this recipe changed my mind. The addition of lemongrass and ginger gave it a really unique and flavorful taste.
