Coconut Rice

I made an awesome dinner tonight and want to be able to find these recipes again.

Coconut Rice

1 1/2 cups basmati rice
2 cups water
1 tbsp vegetable oil
1 tsp mustard seeds
2 tsp split green peas
2/3 cup dried coconut
salt

Cook rice. I use a rice cooker so I set it and forget it. Four servings of rice and 2 cups of water. Add in 2 tsp split green peas (for color).

While rice & peas are cooking, heat up oil. Add mustard seeds and cook until they start popping. Add in coconut and cook for another 3 – 4 minutes. The coconut will brown some. Transfer cooked coconut mixture into the cooked rice and stir until well combined. Serve with your favorite curry.
