Cozy Fireplace Black Rice Recipe

May 10, 2025 Written by James

Today, I want to share a recipe that captures the essence of a warm and cozy evening by the fireplace. This dish is perfect for a quiet night in or a small gathering with loved ones. I hope it brings a sense of comfort and joy to your table.

Ingredients:

  • black rice (200g)
  • coconut milk (400ml)
  • mango (1, diced)
  • ginger (1 tbsp, minced)
  • red chili (1, sliced)
  • lime (1, juiced)
  • coriander (a handful, chopped)

Kitchen Tools:

  • saucepan
  • chef’s knife
  • cutting board
  • wooden spoon

Preparation:

Start by rinsing the black rice under cold water. In a saucepan, combine the black rice and coconut milk. Bring to a boil, then reduce to a simmer and cook for about 30 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid is absorbed.

While the rice is cooking, prepare the toppings. In a separate saucepan, heat a little oil and sauté the minced ginger and sliced red chili until fragrant. Add the diced mango and cook for a few minutes until softened.

Once the rice is cooked, fluff it with a fork and transfer it to a serving bowl. Top with the mango mixture, a squeeze of lime juice, and a handful of chopped coriander. Mix everything together gently to combine all the flavors.

Tips:

For an extra kick of flavor, you can add a pinch of cinnamon or a drizzle of honey to the rice before serving. This will enhance the sweetness of the mango and coconut milk, creating a delightful balance of flavors.

Serving:

This dish weighs approximately 700g when cooked. It serves 4 people, with each serving weighing around 175g. An average serving of this delicious black rice and mango bowl contains approximately 300 calories.

I encourage you to try this recipe and make it your own by adding your favorite spices or toppings. Let the warmth of the coconut milk and the sweetness of the mango transport you to a place of relaxation and contentment. Enjoy!
