Mint-coconut rice Recipe

Recipe By Better Butter

The fresh flavour of mint with sweet coconut, a hint of spice from the green chilli and crunchy roasted cashews and generous tempering of mustard seeds and lentils makes this mint and coconut rice a flavourful affair to last a lifetime! the different flavours and textures is what it makes one of my most favourite rice dishes to cook and serve. I believe that good food has the power to inspire, bring back cherished memories, and create new memories to last lifetime. Everyone i speak to seems to have a favourite or, in some cases, a most hated dish with which they can recall particular moments of their lives. One of the most hated foods of my childhood is now one of my most favourite one as it reminds of the happy school days spent with my best friend. Not only has food made memories for me to cherish, but it has also changed the way i view comfort foods.
