Indonesian Coconut Rice

"Yet another coconut rice; however, this one is a bit different and the flavors are surprising to the tastebuds. You can put this in a rice mold, pop it out, and top with peanuts and/or toasted coconut. Serve alongside stirfried veggies. From Vegan Fire & Spice, by Robin Robertson"

Tweaks

  1. I add both cloves & allspice. I also don't add sugar cause the coconut I use is sweetened.
