HOW TO COOK BEACH COCONUT RICE - Gimbiya - 12-19-2018

Nigerian beach coconut rice.

Beach coconut rice is cooked with seafood, ingredients and meats that one can find at a beach. coconut rice
There were no shrimps available, so, I made do with crayfish. Will try and get shrimps next time. If you
are still thinking of how to bribe hubby this valentine season, think no more. Give him this coconut rice and see your dreams come true. The results were amazing. I have not cooked coconut rice for my
family in a long while and yum yum... the comments that flowed when this dish was served, I can't tell you today. My family went gaga. There was no single soul that did not eat too much. 
cooking coconut ricetakes some time when you want to do it my way, The original way. However, if you are in a hurry or are planning to serve this on a weekday, there are some short cuts:

  1. Buy coconut milk or powdered coconut milk in sachets

  2. Buy bread crumbs

  3. Make your milk ahead of time and store in the fridge

  4. Boil and fry your chicken a day or some days ahead and store in the fridge. If you do this, the problem is; with kids in the house, who are so used to enjoying coated chicken from fast food outlets, they will finish the chicken before you are ready to cook the coconut rice.

Wash coconut before grating, you can easily cook with coconut powder or milk sold at the market.

Boil washed chicken with salt, chopped onion and seasoning cube before coating, you can marinate instead before coating, if that's how you like yours.

For the coated chicken, first boil chicken with salt, onion and seasoning cubes. Take out chicken from stock and start the coating process by first dipping in egg white before bread crumbs. I dried my left over bread in the oven before pounding. You can blend yours.

I did not add curry, thyme, tomatoes or any spices because I wanted the original coconut flavor in my rice and yes, it was so like fresh coconut milk. Extra super de li cious. If you don't have time to grate, chop and bled or buy coconut powder and dilute with water to use.

Enjoy!
