Arroz con Coco
Colombian coconut rice with browned coconut solids and brown sugar.

About Arroz con Coco
This Colombian arroz con coco follows Fedearroz’s recipe published by the country’s agricultural society. Fresh coconut supplies the milk used for the browned coconut base and the rice.
Concentrated coconut and brown sugar give a rounded sweetness, balanced by salt. Browned coconut solids bring a toasted depth to the rice.
The finished grains are tender and carry the brown coconut mixture throughout. Fedearroz’s version presents a simple coconut-and-rice combination, with the browned solids incorporated into the grains; the source does not specify the serving temperature.
