BUT, I did cook something I haven't tried before. I really like the Thai dessert of sticky rice with mango. I had coconut milk that I was trying to use as well as a bunch of brown rice I need to eat before I leave Singapore, so I though "Hey, let's try regular brown rice with sweet coconut milk!" It was actually quite easy, and absolutely tasty, but be patient as it takes a bit of time. Here's what I used: just 5 ingredients, anybody can do it right?
I know it's not much of a picture with the recipe but here it is:
Amy's Brown Rice Dessert Experiment:
3/4 cup short grain brown rice
1 cup light coconut milk
1 cup water
1/4-2/4 cup brown sugar
pinch of salt
Just put all the ingredients in a pot and bring to a boil. Then, simmer until the liquid is practically absorbed. Mix every now and then to make sure the rice isn't sticking to the bottom and that film isn't forming on top.
*If you don't want it as sweet, just add less sugar. I added sugar about half the amount of uncooked rice, and it was a tad too sweet for me. But I'm sure if Jeremy were eating it, he would have wanted more sugar. (Or maybe he would've told me to follow a recipe...)
