Glutinous Black Rice with Coconut Milk
Author: 
Recipe type: Dessert
Serves: 6 to 8
 
Ingredients
  • 1 cup steamed black glutinous rice (1 cup dried rice yields approx. 2 cups cooked rice)
  • 2 cans coconut milk
  • ½ cup milk, optional (add more if you prefer a soup with thinner consistency)
  • white sugar, to taste (I used 3 to 6 tablespoons per one can of coconut milk)
  • ¼ tespoon salt
  • Fresh coconut slices, optional
Instructions
  1. Wash and rinse black glutinous rice several times.
  2. Soak in water overnight.
  3. Drain and rinse the rice.
  4. Cook rice by adding sufficient water, according to your rice cooker's instructions.
  5. Cook coconut milk, milk (optional), sugar and salt over medium heat in a saucepan. Add cooked black glutinous rice to the coconut soup. Add fresh coconut if you desire. NOTE: I added milk because the coconut milk seemed a bit thick and heavy. Try the coconut milk without thinning it with the milk first, and if it's too thick for you, then try adding milk.
  6. Serve hot.
Notes
Black glutinous rice can be found at Chinese supermarkets.
