Question
I have Colombia as my project at school and I need an easy recipe from there for my food to share with everyone. I have the costume, a drink and loads of information. Do you have something to suggest?

Answer
Try Coconut rice. This is a very typical dish from the Atlantic coast of Colombia. It is delicious and easy to make.

INGREDIENTS
2 cups of rice
3 ½ cups of coconut milk
1 spoon of sugar
Salt (optional)

PREPARATION
Cook the rice in the coconut milk, the sugar and the salt at medium heat until the rice starts to dry up, turn the heat down and cover until it is completely dry.
This dish is usually served with fried fish.

Enjoy!
