If no rice cooker:
- Put everything into a thick bottomed pot and stir gently to dissolve salt.
- Bring to the boil over medium heat till most of the liquid has evaporated and venting holes start to appear on the surface of the rice.

- This coconut rice can be served with plenty of Asian recipes. It is the base for the famous Nasi Lemak. It is nice to match the hotness of some Asian stews and stir fries!
