Sometimes we get caught up with our ways and think that rice can be cooked only with water. But water is just a liquid medium. Try cooking rice with chicken stock or lobster stock or even coconut milk mixed with stock, as I do here. Make rice fun and different.
SERVES 4 TO 5
2½ cups jasmine rice
½ cup coconut milk
½ teaspoon kosher salt
2 tablespoons julienned peeled fresh ginger
2 cups water
3½ cups chicken stock
GARNISH
Limes
Papaya, chopped
Rinse the rice thoroughly, at least 5 times, until the water runs clear.
In a medium-size pot with a tight-fitting lid, combine the coconut milk, salt, ginger, water, and stock. Add the rice, bring to a boil, reduce the heat, and simmer, covered, for 12 to 15 minutes, until cooked. Fluff it up and serve with limes and fresh papaya.
