Ingredients

For the Base:

• 1–2 tsp neutral oil (e.g., olive oil)
• 1 tsp minced garlic
• 1/2 tsp sea salt
• 1 tsp onion powder
• 1 cup white basmati rice (rinsed and drained)
• 1 cup Mementa's Coconut Milk
• 3/4 cup vegetable broth
• 1 tsp ground turmeric

For Garnish (Optional):

Instructions

1. Prepare the Base:

• Heat 1–2 tsp of neutral oil in a nonstick pot over medium heat.

2. Combine Ingredients:

• Stir in the basmati rice, Mementa's Coconut Milk, vegetable broth, turmeric, onion powder, and sea salt.

3. Simmer to Perfection:

• Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium-low, cover the pot with a lid, and let it simmer.
