Coconut Cashew Rice
Coconut is a frequent addition to rice dishes in areas of the world such as Indonesia where both crops are cultivated. Fragrant spices and the wonderful textures of the rich cashews and the coconut turn this easy dish into an elegant one. Unsweetened coconut is available in Asian markets and some natural food stores.
Ingredients
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1 large onion, minced
2 cloves garlic, minced
4 scallions, trimmed and minced
