The cooked rice doesn't keep well.

2 Tbsp light coconut milk
2 cups water
1/4 tsp salt
1/2 lime (juiced)
1/2 cup brown rice
1/4 cup fresh cilantro leaves (chopped)

Shake the can of coconut milk very well before opening it.

In a medium sauce pain, heat the coconut milk, water, salt and
lime juice. When the liquid boils, stir in the rice.

Reduce heat to medium-low and simmer, covered, for about 15 minutes.

Do not boil away all of the liquid and do not stir the rice.

When a very small amount of liquid remains, remove the pan from the
burner and let it stand, covered, for 5 minutes. Fold in the chopped
cilantro and serve.
