Ingredients
- 1.5 cups Agriko black rice
- 3.5 cups coconut milk (or water for lighter version)
- 1 cup fresh mixed berries (blueberries, strawberries, raspberries)
- 1 cup coconut yogurt or Greek yogurt
- 3 tablespoons raw honey or agave nectar
- ¼ cup toasted coconut flakes
- 2 tablespoons sliced almonds or macadamia nuts
- 1 pinch sea salt
Instructions
-
Rinse Agriko black rice under cold running water for 1-2 minutes until the water runs relatively clear, removing excess starch.
-
In a medium saucepan, combine rinsed black rice with coconut milk and a pinch of sea salt. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat.
-
Reduce heat to low, cover with a lid, and simmer for 25-30 minutes until rice is tender and liquid is absorbed. Fluff gently with a fork.
-
Allow the cooked rice to cool for 5 minutes, then divide evenly among four bowls.
-
Top each bowl with a generous dollop of coconut yogurt, arranging it to one side of the rice.
-
Arrange fresh mixed berries on top and around the yogurt, then drizzle with honey and sprinkle with toasted coconut flakes and sliced almonds.
-
Serve immediately while the rice is still warm, creating a beautiful contrast with the cool, creamy toppings.
