Steps:

• In a large saucepan over high heat, combine rice, coconut milk and salt; bring to a boil.
• Reduce heat, cover and simmer for 20 to 25 minutes, or until liquid is absorbed and rice is tender.

Steps:

• Saute 2 tablespoons minced ginger in a saucepan with butter. Add 1 cup rinsed basmati rice, 1 cup coconut milk, 1 cup water and a pinch of salt. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat; cover and simmer until the liquid is absorbed, 15 minutes. Let stand 10 minutes off the heat; fluff with a fork. Garnish with cilantro and cashews.

Steps:

• Rinse the rice a few times, until the water that drains away runs almost completely clear.
• Put in a medium, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat with coconut milk, water, sugar and salt. When the liquid comes up to a boil, give it a good stir, scraping the bottom of the pot. Cover the pot and turn the heat down to low.

Steps:

• In a big saucepan or casserole with a lid, gently soften the onions in the oil and butter.

Bring to a gentle simmer, stirring, then cover, lower the heat to the lowest setting and cook for 10-15 mins, scraping the bottom regularly with a wooden spoon to stop it sticking. Check the rice: it should be sticky and creamy but not watery, and not quite cooked - still a bit crunchy. Tip into a big bowl that will fit in a microwave and cover with cling film. Chill until ready to serve, for up to a day.
• To serve, poke a hole in the cling film and microwave for 8 mins on High, stirring halfway, until piping hot and cooked through. Add some salt and stir through with a fork to break up the grains.
