Instructions
- Rinse the Arborio rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, and water.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce the heat to low, cover, and cook for 30-40 minutes, stirring every 10 minutes to prevent sticking.
