great recipe. I added two tablespoons of shredded coconut while it cooked and toasted some coconut to top it off with afterwards. Perfect! it looked so pretty I had to share a picture.

I could not get enough of this rice - one helping became four! The coconut flavor is subtle yet rich (omitted coconut pieces) complementing the Thai Peanut Chicken (Pioneer Woman) I served it with. I will make this rice for years to come. You MUST try this recipe!!

I made this to serve with Spicy Orange Beef and enjoyed the mild flavor in this recipe. I did add 2T of dried veggies to the rice as it was cooking and stirred in fresh cilantro at the end. Very nice.

This was a lovely side dish...the coconut was very subtle and makes for a nice summer sidedish!
