Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 3 cups cooked basmati rice or jasmine, or whatever
  • 1 can coconut milk
  • 1 can filtered water
  • 1 full vanilla bean seeds removed
  • 1/4 cup maple syrup

Method
 

  1. In a saucepan over medium-high heat, add the coconut milk, water, vanilla, and maple syrup.
  2. Bring it to a boil and let it do its thing for 5-minutes, constantly stirring so it doesn't stick.
  3. Bring it down to low, and let it thicken and bubble away, stirring constantly for around 30-minutes.
  4. That's it! Top with my strawberry glaze or your favorite fruit.

Notes

Sometimes I do 2 cans of lite coconut milk,  other times I use one can of coconut cream, and another of water. Doesn't really matter but I like it to be rich and creamy. You could even use almond milk if you wanted to.
