Coconut Rice
Serves: 4
Difficulty:  Easy
Prep Time: 5 Minutes
Cook Time: ~30 Minutes

This rice has a very light flavor and pairs well with other curry-flavored veggies or tofu.

1 cup rice, rinsed
1/4 cup diced onion
1 can (14oz) coconut milk
1/4 cup water
2 slices fresh ginger root
2 teaspoons curry powder
1/2 teaspoon salt

In a medium saucepan, combine rice, onion, coconut milk, water, ginger, curry powder, and salt. Cover, and bring to a boil. Reduce heat, and simmer for 20 to 30 minutes, or until done.

Notes
Basmati or jasmine rice gives this rice a subtle undertone.
Use light coconut milk to make this a little healthier.
Add some extra ginger, curry powder or cayenne pepper for an extra kick. A few teaspoons of ginger spice can substitute for fresh.
Like most rice dishes, this freezes well.
