- 3-4 Minced garlic
- 3-4 Minced ginger
- Optional vegetables, such as carrots or broccoli

Instructions
- Start by adding two cups of jasmine rice to a boil in four cups of water.
- After it’s been boiled for ten minutes, reduce the heat to low and let it simmer for another fifteen minutes or until all the liquid has been absorbed.
- Once cooked through, stir in one cup of canned coconut milk until fully incorporated into the rice. This will give it that rich coconut flavor we are after!
- Meanwhile, heat some olive oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic and ginger to the pan along with optional vegetables such as broccoli or carrots.
- Sautee these ingredients until they start to soften before adding two tablespoons each of soy sauce and brown sugar to give it that perfect balance between savory and sweet flavors.
- Stir well to combine before pouring this mixture over the prepared rice.
- To finish off your Coconut Rice Bowl, top with freshly chopped cilantro leaves and sesame seeds.
- Serve warm alongside your favorite sides or store in an airtight container for up to three days in the refrigerator for quick meals throughout the week! Enjoy!
