I've list 3 cups of coconut milk for 1 cup of rice but you should follow the instruction on your rice package. The cook time depends on what kind of rice you're using."

This is really good. Went well with spicy tandoori chicken. I have made other coconut rice recipes, but never with brown sugar or bay leaf. Nice touch. I think I may toast the shredded coconut a bit next time before adding it to the rice, just for a little extra flavor. Made for Spring 2012 PAC game. -
Yum, loved it, although like other reviewers stated, a bit different, but none-the-less good to the last drop. This went perfectly with some curry chicken, and will make again, loved the bay leaf! Made for ZWT7 - I used fresh coconut milk, YUM-O -
I made this in my rice cooker instead of on the stove top. I really enjoyed the flavor, but I had to add water to avoid burning. Unfortunately, I don't think we'll make it again as apparently no one in my family is all the fond of coconut. Thanks for sharing! Made for ZWT7. -
This was different & I can see many future uses for it. This is the sweetest version of coconut rice I've tried. I look forward to trying it alongside a spicer main dish as I think the contrast in the spicy against this sweet rice would enhance both. I do like the addition of the bay leaf and think a wee bit of salt could be added. Made for ZWT7. -
One bite? No? That's like leaving me hanging on a high-five. Made for ZWT7.

I love trying new dishes. For me, food is a way of experiencing the world without leaving my home, and I'm hoping that as my two sons get older that I can convince them to come with me on my culinary adventures.
