INGREDIENTS
  • 190 g jasmine rice, uncooked and rinsed (approx. 1 cup)
  • ¾ tsp kosher salt, divided
  • 240 ml full-fat coconut milk
  • 180 ml water
  • 2 tbsp Fody Shallot Infused Olive Oil
  • 1 bell pepper, finely diced (e.g. green, orange or yellow mix)
  • 60 g zucchini, diced
  • 40 g corn
  • Juice of 1 lime
  • 60 ml Fody Medium Salsa
  • 1–2 tsp Fody Taco Seasoning (to taste)
  • ½ cup cherry tomatoes, halved or quartered
  • 2 tbsp cilantro, finely chopped
  • 3 tbsp toasted coconut flakes (optional)
INSTRUCTIONS
  1. Add the rice, ½ tsp salt, coconut milk and water to a pot with a lid. Stir, cover, bring to a boil, then immediately reduce to low heat. Simmer for 12–15 minutes until the liquid is fully absorbed. Remove from heat and let steam, covered, for 3–5 minutes.
  2. Meanwhile, heat the shallot oil in a large pan over medium heat. Add the bell pepper, zucchini and corn with the remaining ¼ tsp salt and sauté for 4–5 minutes, stirring occasionally.
  3. Transfer the cooked rice to a serving bowl. Stir in the lime juice, salsa, taco seasoning and most of the sautéed vegetables.
  4. Garnish with the remaining vegetables, cherry tomatoes, cilantro and optional coconut flakes – done!
