is that 1 cup coconut milk itself enough for the amount of rice mentioned in the recipe to cook?? or should i add water..
ReplyDeleteand pls tell me the quantity of water required to cook in a kadai instead of cooker.
Harry, 1 cup coconut milk is enough, if you want you can add additional 1/2 cup coconut milk or water. Just add enough coconut milk to cover rice because too much of coconut milk will spoil the recipe.
DeleteIn kadai version, for 1 cup rice, add 1.5 cups of water.
