椰醬飯 (EVERYONE'S FAVOURITE NASI LEMAK)

Ingredients :-

3¾ cups white or red rice, washed and drained well

800ml coconut milk

5 pandan leaves, tied in knots

3cm ginger, sliced finely

6 shallots, sliced finely

3 cloves garlic, sliced finely

1 piece cinnamon

Salt to taste

To serve :

Bottled sambal chilli

Crispy fried ikan bilis

Fried peanuts

Sliced cucumber

4 hard-boiled eggs

1. Put rice, coconut milk and all other ingredients into a rice cooker. Cook as normal.

2. Let cooked rice sit for 5 mins then fluff grains with a fork. Serve hot with prepared ingredients.

3. For red rice, use the same amount as white rice, but soak in water for 45 mins after washing. Use similar amount of ingredients to cook in the rice cooker. Red rice is a great way to add colour and celebrate in a healthier way.

TIP : Get guests talking! Soften banana leaves in hot water. Cut into 16-cm squares. Shape into a cone, and fasten sides with a toothpick. Serve rice inside.
