Golden Creamy Coconut Rice

This rice adds a wonderful fragrance and flavor to meals. Here it is:

2 cups jasmin rice (or if you prefer brown rice or mixed rice use that just add a little bit more water.
2 cups water
1 cup coconut milk
1-2 tsp tumeric, optional (adds a beautiful yellow color to rice and is a healthy addition)

Heat water, coconut milk, and tumeric on high. When the mixture boils add rice and stir. Turn heat to low-medium, so that it is lightly boiling. You should be able to leave the pan's lid on without it boiling over. Let the rice cook covered until done. Try to limit the number of times that you peek inside. The steam really helps cook this rice and keeps it soft and fluffy.
