- 1 x 400g tinned coconut milk
- 1 x 200g tinned coconut milk
- 200 mls water
- 1 tbsp sugar
- 1 tsp salt

Instructions
- Rinse the basmati rice using several changes of water and until the water runs clear. Add the rice, 1 and a 1/2 tins of coconut milk, water, sugar and salt to a saucepan.
- Bring to a light boil and stir well to ensure no rice is sticking to the bottom of the pan. Then reduce the heat to its lowest setting, bringing the rice to a simmer. Cover with the lid and simmer for 13 minutes and all the liquid has been absorbed.
- Turn off the heat and leave to rest for 5 minutes. Fluff up with a fork and serve.
