PURPLE JASMINE COCONUT RICE RECIPE
Tthe hugely popular Burma Superstar restaurant here in San Francisco. Drive by any night of the week and you'll find a line out the door, people patiently waiting for a seat inside the modest-sized, one room dining area. Lots of praises of the samusa soup, tea leaf and rainbow salads - and you should never leave without a side of the rich, fragrant jasmine coconut rice.

Steps:
- Start by rinsing the rice. You can do this by putting the rice in the thick-bottomed pan it is going to cook in. Fill the pot halfway with water, swish the rice around (the water will get cloudy), and pour out the cloudy water. Repeat 3 times. The water might still be a bit cloudy, and that is o.k. To the rinsed (and drained) rice add the coconut milk, water, and salt. Stir to combine. Place the pot over medium high heat and bring the liquid to a boil (uncovered). Stir often to prevent the rice from scorching down at the bottom of the pot. Once the liquid comes to a boil reduce the heat to a low, low simmer, cover the pot tightly with a lid. Cook for about 15- 20 more minutes (resisting the urge to peek). Remove from heat (still covered!), and let the rice steam for another 10-15. While the rice is cooking cook up the shallots in a small frying pan over medium to medium-high heat. Too hot and you'll burn the butter instead of browning it. Add the butter to the pan, then stir in the shallots and a couple pinches of salt. Stir every few minutes letting the shallots brown increasingly until they are dark in color. Transfer to a paper towel until ready to use. I fluff the rice in the pot so I don't completely dirty up the edges of my serving bowl or platter. Transfer the rice to desired serving vessel and sprinkle with cashews and the crispy shallots. Serves 4 to 6.

PINEAPPLE COCONUT JASMINE RICE
Ok....my sweet tooth hit overdrive tonight and I wanted my dinner to reflect that! I didn't want to wait for dessert for the good stuff....so here is a recipe that I found from President's Choice that definitely satisfied my need for sweet....but not overkill! This IS actually a dessert but I needed something to go with my Lemon Chicken and Fresh Snow Peas...so I decided that this would fill the empty spot on my plate. While I was waiting for my chicken to finish cooking, I was sampling this Jasmine Rice delight...and it was mighty hard to wait to put it on the plate! Hope you enjoy this as much as I did!

Steps:
- Bring water to a boil in a medium sized pot.
- Stir in the rice and reduce heat to low.
- Cover and cook for approximately 10 minutes or until water is absorbed (stirring occasionally),.
- In a separate saucepan, heat the coconut milk over medium heat until hot but not boiling.
- Add the brown sugar and stir until dissolved.
- Add 1/2 of the coconut milk mixture to the cooked rice.
- Let the rice stand for about 15-20 minutes.
- Then add the diced pineapple and remainder of the coconut milk to the rice.
- Optional: added a sprinkle of cinnamon to the top of the rice when serving.
Tips:
- Use high-quality jasmine rice: Choose a fragrant variety of jasmine rice, such as Thai jasmine rice or Vietnamese jasmine rice, for the best flavor and aroma.
- Soak the rice before cooking: Soaking the rice for at least 30 minutes before cooking helps to remove some of the starch and results in more fluffy and separate grains of rice.
- Use the correct water-to-rice ratio: The ideal water-to-rice ratio for cooking jasmine rice is 1:1.5. This means that for every cup of rice, you will need 1.5 cups of water.
- Cook the rice over low heat: Cooking the rice over low heat helps to prevent the rice from becoming mushy and ensures that it cooks evenly throughout.
- Let the rice rest before serving: After the rice is cooked, let it rest for 5-10 minutes before serving. This allows the rice to absorb any remaining moisture and results in a more flavorful and fluffy texture.
