Ingredients
- 1 ½ cups of fragrant jasmine rice
- 1 ½ cups of pure water
- 1 ½ cups of rich, thick coconut milk
- 2 teaspoons of finely chopped ginger
- 2 teaspoons of savory soy sauce
- A single plump lemongrass stalk, with only the tender white inner bulb minced
- A handful of fresh curry leaves, about 15 leaves, finely chopped
- A bunch of aromatic Thai basil, roughly 15 leaves, chopped
Step 1
Begin by giving the rice a refreshing rinse under cold water to remove any impurities. Next, in a saucepan, mix together the rice with water, creamy coconut milk, zesty ginger, savory soy sauce, fragrant lemongrass, and aromatic curry leaves. Stir everything together gently. Allow the mixture to come to a gentle boil over medium heat before lowering the heat to a simmer. Let it cook uncovered until the rice reaches a tender consistency, usually around 10 minutes. For a burst of fresh flavor, delicately fold in some vibrant basil leaves. Once ready, serve this aromatic and flavorful dish straight away to fully enjoy its delicious taste.

- 1. Keeping your Fragrant Thai Rice Delight in a tightly sealed container will help maintain its freshness and aroma for longer periods of time.
- 2. Store your rice away from direct sunlight and in a cool, dry place to prevent it from losing its delicate fragrance and flavor.
