Coconut Rice is the softer, sweeter cousin of jollof: long-grain rice simmered in coconut milk with onion, pepper and West African seasoning until every grain turns creamy and fragrant. This version is finished with seafood, which brings a clean brine that plays beautifully against the coconut.
The heat sits on the gentle side, so the sweetness of the coconut and the character of the seafood stay in front. It eats well on its own, and even better with fried plantain alongside.
