The rice was a bit too dry, but the flavors were amazing. I'll try adding a little more coconut milk or water next time.

Followed the recipe but the rice came out a bit too sweet. I think I'll use less sugar next time.

Followed the recipe but the rice came out a bit mushy. Maybe I used too much water. Will try again with less water.
