LEARN HOW TO MAKE COCONUT CHICKPEA BASMATI RICE RECIPE
LAY HO MA!! This rice dish is a real treat. It's incredible fragrant, salty, sweet, smokey, and absolutely delicious. Join me and learn how to make this beautiful coconut chickpea fried rice recipe. Let's begin.
Ingredients:
1 cup basmati rice
1 cup coconut milk
1/2 red onion
1/4 cup hazelnuts
1 cup broccolini (chopped)
1 tbsp coconut oil
1 cup canned chickpeas
1/2 tbsp garlic powder
1 tsp chili powder
1 tbsp smoked paprika
2 tsp turmeric
generous pinch of salt
1/2 cup shredded coconut
few sprigs cilantro
Directions:
1. Place 1 cup of basmati rice into a small sauce pan. Wash and drain the rice a couple of times to get rid of the excess starch
2. Toast the rice for a couple of minutes on medium high heat. Then, add in 1 cup of coconut milk
3. When the milk starts to bubble, give the rice a good stir to make sure nothing is grabbing the bottom of the pan. Then, cover and cook on medium low for 15min
4. Dice the red onion, coarsely chop the hazelnuts, and chop the broccolini
5. After 15min, turn the heat off and let the rice steam further for 10min
6. Heat up a non stick pan on medium heat. Add the coconut oil
7. Add the red onion and chickpeas followed by the garlic powder, chili powder, smoked paprika, turmeric, and salt
8. Add in the hazelnuts and broccolini
9. Sauté for 3-4min
10. Add the shredded coconut. Sauté for another couple of minutes and taste and adjust the seasoning if needed
11. Plate the rice and add the coconut chickpeas on top. Garnish with some freshly chopped cilantro

I struggle with a lot of mental illnesses and is in a depressive episode now, however I decided to try and cook a complete recipe for the first time in 6 months. I made this and it was quite nice, even if I didn't have all the right ingredients. I'll make it again when I've bought chilipowder, felt it lacking. Thank you for making such an easy recipe for us who need simple instructions to even get started!

Now I have all the right ingredients I made it again - it's delicious! Used noodles instead of rice and added the coconut milk to the pan at the end, marrying the flavours of chili podwer and paprika together with the coconut in a creamy mixture.

[@getoverthyself]

Really good Wil, thank you for your hard work for our tastebuds!😊 For those reading comments, I didn't have hazelnuts, so used almonds. Veggies were a little dry and all my flavor was sticking to the pan; I just added a couple tblsps of water. I was needing a little kick tonight so I added about 1/4tsp of red pepper flakes and a squeeze of fresh lime juice. Also used brown basmati rice so had to add a little more milk and cook a few minutes longer. De-lish!!

I love how you don't hold back on the rice portion. Rice is life!

[@alexperaza9475]

My first thought was "That's a LOT of rice" followed by "Actually, that's literally how much rice I serve myself too" XD

[@7skeptic7]

Not sure if a 1:1 ratio or f rice to coconut milk is working for me. Just mush, added more water to get closer to 2:1 ratio of liquid to rice. Also in the video, that looks like 2 cups of rice?

[@snlarini99]

@@7skeptic7 I thought it was 2 cups at first and then concluded it's a 1/2 cup measure hence 2 dips = 1 cup. As for coconut rice, rice (and oats too) soaks up water better than milk (dairy or non-dairy) so playing around with the ratios of milk to water is a good idea. When I used to make coconut rice, I did use a mix of coconut milk and water. Also when I cook white rice, I use 1 cup rice and 1 3/4 cups water. I tried 1 1/2 cups water like said recipe and I got chalky underdone rice. And it was Tilda (premium brand)! Hope that helps :)

[@HipHopMovieNews]

😂 "rice is life." Totally agree.

[@ana_d_73]

I've made coconut rice before, it's delicious. Also, adding a small piece of fresh ginger to the cooking liquid gives a it subtle flavour that is absolutely amazing.

[@MA-tu7sw]

Ah, I was thinking in the same direction too. Lemongrass, ginger then a bit of lime juice. But then the taste wouldn't be the same. Am sure his recipe in itself is splendid.

[@dhartitrivedi7454]

As an Indian I typically approach South Asian recipes as put forward by non-South Asians with a healthy dose of skepticism. They usually fall short on flavor and while I appreciate the easy, quicker cooking time, they don't quite hit the note. But this recipe was hands down a family favorite. We all love it and thank you for not making it a weird flavorless version. I follow a bunch of your recipes and none of them have managed to disappoint so far. Your videos are also so on point without useless banter and that 'salesman voice' that many videos tend to have.

A few weeKs ago, KZbin suggested your channel. Almost didn’t check it out since I normally would rather read a recipe than watch a video (but you are kind enough to provide both). I wasn’t even sure it would be entirely vegan, but I am so glad I did. My husband died two months ago. I lost some interest in cooking and eating. But thanks to you, I am doing both again and loving it! Your recipes are perfect...healthy but still fun, cooking from scratch but not too complicated. So many people who develop recipes are more about their egos and showing off, but you are all about the food, letting it speak for itself while sharing your joy in creating and eating it. I can’t thank you enough. You thought you are just providing recipes but you’ve given me anew lease on life, helping me cook with confidence, ease, and joy...and then enjoying every mouthful.

Hi Wil, I finally got to making this dish today. Oh my goodness, it's absolutely delicious. I live in the Caribbean so some nuts in particular aren't always readily available to us. Hazelnuts not seen here very often. So I had to compromise and instead used quarter cup.of unsalted peanuts. I chopped them and it's worked out perfectly fine. I love your method of cooking the basmati rice also. That steaming method at the very end makes such a difference and leaves the rice almost al dente, just perfect. I cook and freeze as I'm a person living alone, so I'm sure these beautiful flavours will develop even more although I don't think they will be in the freezer for long🤣🤣🤣🤪 I need to ask a question about your chili oil recipe but will go to that page and ask. Thank you for such inspirational recipes. Like many people, I am making my diet more plant based, but admittedly still enjoy meat but my tendency is more fish and much less meat these days.💕

I cooked 2 cups of brown rice without the coconut milk, instead used water and added a teaspoon of coconut oil in the rice cooker with the water level to 3 cups. Brown rice seems to need a longer time to cook and my elevation is 6,000 feet above sea level. I added an extra tablespoon of the paprika, used sliced almonds that I roasted first, and also used roasted coconut flakes. Turned out great. Thanks for the recipe.
