)
Ingredients
- Half handful dry mung beans
- 1 portion basmati rice ((2-3 handfuls dry rice)
- ½ can thick coconut milk and 1/4 can water mixed
- 1 clove garlic, sliced
- salt and pepper
Method
1) Boil the mung beans in plenty of salted water until they are cooked, this should take 25-30 minutes.
2) Meanwhile, cook the rice in the coconut milk mixture with salt pepper and the sliced garlic. I suggest adding the liquid a bit at a time, until the rice is cooked, as you would for a risotto. This ensures you don’t have too much liquid.
3)When the rice is cooked mix in the cooked mung beans and allow to rest and absorb any excess liquid.
NB: Mung beans are optional !
