COCONUT MILK RICE / KUSHKA RICE

COCONUT MILK RICE

THIS RECIPE IS ONE OF MY FAVOURITE WHICH IS VERY TASTY AND EASY TO PREPARE. COCONUT MILK RICE IS A LESS SPICY FOOD WHICH TASTES GOOD WHEN COOKED IN BASMATI OR SEERGA SAMBA RICE. SINCE IT IS A LESS FLAVORED RECIPE IT GOES WELL WITH CHICKEN, EGG GRAVIES AND EVEN WITH VEGETABLE CURRY. THE INGREDIENTS IS VERY FEW AND ALSO TAKES VERY LESS PREPERATION TIME.
