Instructions to make Coconut rice:
- Parboil the rice. PS: I prefer to let it get a little soft while parboiling before rinsing it out because I don't like adding extra water after adding the coconut milk (you'll see this later).
- Wash and set aside the dried fish.
- Cut up your coconut into little pieces and blend using a high speed blender. I add hot water to help extract the coconut milk while blending..
- Pour the blended coconut into a colander so as to separate the liquid from the chaff. You can squeeze further to help extract the milk but make sure your hands are clean.
- Pound crayfish and fresh pepper. I prefer using a wooden mortar and pestle because I believe it gives it an earthy flavour.
- Rinse the parboiled rice. Add the dried fish, crayfish, pepper, salt, onion, curry and seasoning cubes. Mix all ingredients together.
- Pour in the coconut milk. I try to extract enough milk to cook the rice so I don't have to add extra water. PS: Just the milk and not the chaff.
- Leave to cook until the water dries up. If you suspect your rice will get soggy, leave the pot open while cooking till it's ready..
- Coconut rice is ready! Serve with salad and/or any choice meat or fish. I served the salad with some avocado salad dressing (see recipe).
