Coconut Lime Orange Rice

  • 1 tsp ginger
  • 4 spring onions, sliced
  • 1 tbsp sesame seeds
  • 1/3 cup shredded coconut (optional)
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 2 tsp coriander
  • a carrot, diced
  • 2 cups rice
  • 1 can coconut milk (13.5oz)
  • same can (13.5oz) filled with veg stock
  • swiss chard, shredded
  • blood orange oil OR juice of one blood orange with zest
  • olive oil

Sautee ginger, onion, sesame seeds, garlic, coconut, and coriander. Add some small diced mixed veg of your choice if you would like to turn this a little more biryani-ish. I chose small diced carrots, I think some peas would be nice too.

Add 2 cups rice, 1 can of coconut milk and 1 can of stock. Bring to a boil. Cover and put on simmer for 10-15 mins. Place shredded swiss chard on top and cover for 5 mins. Uncover, stir. Let sit for 5.

Add a tbsp blood orange olive oil (if you are a normal person and do not have this, just squeeze a bit of orange), 1 lime, 1 tbsp olive oil. Stir, serve.
