My usual is to soak the rice in about 1 3/4 cups of water, drain and reserve the soaking liquid, air dry the rice for a bit and then simmer until the liquid is absorbed. I enjoyed the texture of the dish but you can of course experiment to suit your preferences.Lisa Turnerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17596930753946940084noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498332469430544166.post-54919405614812139522013-04-12T13:36:09.028-04:002013-04-12T13:36:09.028-04:00I made this last weekend and it is a very lovely d...I made this last weekend and it is a very lovely dish. My only question has to do with cooking the rice. Two cups of water to one cup of rice is way more than I would normally use, particularly after soaking, and gave a very sticky texture to the dish. Is this intended? I usually use about 1 1/3 cups water to 1 cup rice to keep the fluffy , slightly dry texture tht I associate with basmati rice.Davenoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498332469430544166.post-38872719197975041302011-03-06T15:43:15.888-05:002011-03-06T15:43:15.888-05:00The rice looks delicious.

I have only used coconut in desserts and never used it in savory dishes.Ivyhttp://kopiaste.orgnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498332469430544166.post-61891628701195804642011-03-05T23:29:58.335-05:002011-03-05T23:29:58.335-05:00wow, looks super delicious Lisa :)wow, looks super delicious Lisa :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05381030520215535446noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5498332469430544166.post-45308703877236282142011-03-05T15:48:47.143-05:002011-03-05T15:48:47.143-05:00Fenugreek seeds, tamarinf paste..I can make this L...Fenugreek seeds, tamarinf paste..I can make this Lisa!!!!Valerie Harrison (bellini)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10205920305666658534noreply@blogger.com
