This is Malay breakfast food.

Coconut Rice (Nasi Lemak) for 6.

3 cups of uncooked rice

2 cups of water

1/2 tsp salt

1 pandan leaf (usually sold as frozen in Chinese supermarkets), if you can’t get this, don’t worry but it will taste different.

1 tin (approx 400g) of coconut milk (full fat version)

Wash the rice, then heat everything together (except coconut milk). Once it starts boiling, turn the heat to low until all the water is absorbed. Pour in the coconut milk and bring it to boil again, cover and turn the heat off. Leave for 15 minutes. Fluff the rice up and serve with fried crispy onions, garlic and chilies – you can buy this already cooked (in jars or packets) in a chinese supermarket. 

You can serve this as a rice dish to go with Chinese/ Malay/ Indonesian or Indian food.
