Preparation

1 h
  1. Sauté the onion in the hot oil, in a large pot, for a few minutes.
  2. Add the tomatoes and the tomato paste, and cook over medium heat for 6 minutes, stirring from time to time.
  3. Stir in 60 ml of coconut milk and continue cooking until the mixture is reduced and thick.
  4. Add the rest of the coconut milk, the bell peppers, carrots, chilli, ginger, bay leaf and salt.
  5. Bring to a boil and add the rice and the rest of the vegetables, stirring with a fork. Lower the heat, cover and let it cook until the rice has absorbed almost all of the liquid.

  7. Serve; you can pair it with meat cooked however you like.
