Topped with fresh, juicy mango slices, the burst of sweetness enhances the richness of the rice.

The dish has been raised and made both luxurious and refreshing by the bright, acidic contrast of the squeezed lime juice and the sprinkled lime zest.

It’s the ideal balance of flavours and textures that takes your taste buds to a tropical paradise.

Ingredients:

  • Vita Coco Coconut Oil
  • 380g reduced fat coconut milk
  • 20g lemon grass, cut in half
  • 2 tbsp light brown sugar
  • Pinch of salt
  • 180g black rice
  •  ½ tsp chilli flakes
  • 1 ripe mango
  • One lime
  • 1 large sweet potato

How To Make:

Method:

  1. Firstly, preheat the oven at 180 degrees. Peel and cut the sweet potato into small cubes and toss into a pan or baking tray with a tsp of Vita Coco Coconut Oil, chilli flakes, salt and a pinch of salt.
  2. Roast the potato in the oven for 15-20 minutes. Fry the lemongrass in a tsp of oil for a few minutes. Add the milk and bring to boil until bubbling.
  3. Stir in the rice and reduce the heat, allowing to cook for 35-40 minutes on low heat.
  4. Make the dressing by peeling the mango and slicing thinly.
  5. Zest and juice the lime and mix together with the mango in a bowl. Set aside until rice is ready.
  6. Last but not least, dish the rice into a bowl and top with mango dressing to serve.
