Vegan Coconut Rice

This Columbian side dish is deliciously rich and full of flavor.  I have found that it goes excellent with a nice piece of grilled tofu or a grilled mushroom, but also makes a great base for a rice pudding dessert!

What you need:

3 x 14 fl oz cans unsweetened coconut milk

1 t  light brown sugar

1 C  long grain rice (I use brown, but its up to you)

salt

1 T  vegan butter

Pour the milk into a large pan with a tight fitting lid and add the sugar.  Bring to a boil and then simmer until the liquid has reduced by half.

Add the rice to the pan, season with salt, and bring to a boil.  Lower the heat, simmer, and cook stirring often for 5 minutes.  Stir the butter in and cover the pan tightly.  Simmer gently for 15 minutes, then remove from the heat.  Leave covered for 5 minutes before transferring to a serving bowl.  Enjoy!
