Steps

1. Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. 2. In a small saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, water, salt, and sugar (if using). 3. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally. 4. Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan with a lid, and let it simmer for about 15 minutes. 5. After 15 minutes, turn off the heat and let the rice sit, still covered, for another 5 minutes to steam. 6. Fluff the rice with a fork and garnish with fresh cilantro or mint before serving.

Ingredients

1/2 cup jasmine rice 1 cup coconut milk 1/4 cup water 1/2 teaspoon salt 1 tablespoon sugar (optional) Fresh cilantro or mint for garnish (optional)
