COCONUT ALMOND LIME RICE

Ingredients:

1 cup of basmati or jasmine rice

1 lime juiced

¾ cup of diced cilantro (parsley or basil as an alternative)

¾ tsp. of sea salt

1/4 cup of crushed raw almonds

2 cups of coconut milk

1 tbs. ghee or coconut oil

1 cup of water (2 if you want to make it more sticky)

Preparation:

Soak your rice for at least 3-4 hours or preferably overnight. Take a medium saucepan and add the base oil. Warm the oil and add the almonds and the rice, dry roasting it for a minute. Next, add coconut milk and bring to a boil. At this point add the lime juice and stir thoroughly. Add the sea salt and cilantro and lower the flame to a simmer. Cook for approximately 30 minutes, only stirring three times throughout the cooking process. Turn burner off. Let sit for 5 minutes and serve.
