Easy Mixed vegetable rice with coconut milk |
This is a very easy rice dish to make, because it is made in the
rice cooker. The vegetables added give a good taste and are also nutritious. It is very tasty so much so that you can eat it without any other accompaniments. This is a vegetarian rice dish. But I served this rice with a very spicy chicken curry and sweet potato balls.
