I can't wait to try this one. Sounds fabulous. Love rice in any form and love coconut in any form, this has to be a match made in heaven. Yummers.

I've had a version of this that used ginger and, I think, curry as seasonings. I must make this sometime. I am curious about how different it will taste.

Oh my goodness this has everything I like... I like the idea of ginger too.

I can get Thai Brown Jasmine Rice from this little Oriental Store that is about a 5 minute walk from my house. I love it.

Thanks for the share. Will let you know how it goes

Marie.

PS I have never heard of Coconut rice... Where will I find this?

Excellent! I had coconut rice for the first time this summer, in an African restaurant in New Orleans, and I loved it. I'm so glad you posted this recipe!

HAHA Sorry Shirley, I thought that Coconut rice was part of the ingredients.

As a devout coconut lover, this rice recipe is just too perfect! I cannot wait to try it. As you've probably noted, most of the recipies I've posted contain coconut. The more the better...
