This is a Kerala (Southern India) rendition of coconut rice. It's a tad sweeter than regular rice which cuts through much of the spice found in an accompaniment of a spicy curry such as chicken curry.
This is a really tasty, colourful, and quick side dish or a fast meal for those on the go. I make this about once a week and it is great reheated with a sprinkle of Parmesan.

White rice is the main side dish made in Brazil. This is the way my mom would make it and taught my sister and I. What makes this so different is that we fry it in oil with minced onion and garlic before...
