15 oz. can light coconut milk
1 Tbsp. olive oil
1-2 scallion(s), white and green parts, chopped
1 Tbsp. ginger, peeled and finely chopped

1. Combine rice, 1 2/3 cups water, 1 tsp. of salt and 3/4 cup of the coconut milk in saucepan. Bring to boil, reduce to low. Simmer, covered about 20 minutes, or until most of the liquid is absorbed and rice is almost tender.
