Editors Review
Coconut Rice is one of the most popular food items in South India. It is in fact the most preferred one, since coconuts are a staple and are used in almost all dishes is some form or the other. If you are a coconut lover, try this delicious traditional style coconut rice made with coconut powder and flavored with a tempering of cumin, curry leaves and peanuts. Its subtly spiced and fragrant .It is an exciting combination of coconut and plain white rice and can be eaten for breakfast or lunch.
