Kiuning (Lanao) Coconut Rice

Combine 1 cup fresh grated COCONUT and 4 cups MILK in a saucepan.  Bring to a point of boiling and let soak for 30 minutes.  Press to extract all juice and discard pulp.  Wash the 2 cups RICE as usual.  


Melt MARGARINE or 1/4 lb. VEGETABLE OIL in heavy saucepan and saute the 1/2 cup minced ONIONS for 5 minutes.


Stir in the 1-1/2 tbsps. CURRY POWDER or turmeric and 2 cups of RICE.  Cook over low heat stirring constantly for about 5 minutes.  Add COCONUT MILK and 1-1/2 tsps. salt.  Cover and cook until rice done.


Watch carefully.  Just in case water is fully absorbed and rice may still not be done, therefore sprinkling of water is needed.  And lessening of heat to produce more steam.  Serves 6.
