    I should have read all of the reviews before making this rice. The liquid to rice ratio is off and as a result the rice was crunchy- yuck! Also, there was really no coconut flavor at all. Skip this one and find another recipe.

    I LOVE this rice! It's sweet and creamy... but not too much so, you can still pair it with savory foods. I like to serve it with thai peanut chicken. :

    I add about 1 table spoon of Mae Ploy Sweet Chili sauce.

    Tasty, and fast & easy to make. I added some diced red pepper and a bit of chicken bouillon, then topped the cooked rice with scallions. This recipe calls for a cup of coconut milk, and a can is a bit more than a cup...if you want more intense coconut flavor I would just use the complete can of milk and less water. It's a great side dish- I had this with sauted asian greens.

    Not enough coconut flavor for my taste. Mine turned out a little too salty. I tried the recipe from the link that "c" posted and I thought it was way better.

    This rice is perfect; light and fluffy with a delicious, mild flavor. I added just a tablespoon of sugar and sprinkled fresh-cut mango over the top just before serving! Absolutely wonderful!

    I made this last night for my husband and we loved it! I did add 1 tablespoon of shredded coconut and I think that made it great! Definitely will be making this again!

    This rice is just what I was looking for. Per other reviewer's recommendations I also opted to include fresh coconut and a little butter. Then when it was done I also stirred in just a touch of sugar and it was great. I served this under some spicy mango shrimp and it's very tasty!

    But I recommend adding about a tablespoon of shredded coconut and some butter to it while it's cooking. I also toasted some coconut and put it on top right before serving, added a lot of flavor.
