A delicious combination of coconut and saffron blended with jasmine rice. I have tried many recipes and finally came up with this myself and I love it! Be sure to use unsweetened coconut. If you can use a fresh coconut and grate it. If not, you can rinse the sugar off of sweetened and then toast.

Steps:
- Over medium high heat combine oil, rice, salt, saffron, garlic and onion. Stirring constantly heat for 2-3 minutes then add toasted coconut. Stir another minute or until edges of rice begin to brown.
- Add chicken broth and coconut milk, being careful as it will sizzle like crazy! Stir bottom and sides of pot and reduce heat to low. Put a tightly fitting lid on and cook for approximately 15-20 minutes or until rice has absorbed all the liquid and is tender.
