    ### Ingredients

    * 240 g Jasmine Rice
    * 1 tbsp Coconut Oil
    * 1/2 tsp Kosher Salt

    #### Cooking Liquid

    * 1 Cinnamon Stick
    * 1/8 tsp Ground Cloves
    * 350 ml Coconut Milk
    * 1 Bay Leaf
    * 1 Lemongrass Stalk tied into a knot
    * 15 g Ginger peeled and thinly sliced
    * 1/4 tsp Ground Nutmeg
    * 2 Lime Leaves

    #### Garnish

    * Shallot Oil or Sesame Oil optional
    * 1/4 cup Fried Shallots
    * 2 tbsp Coconut Chips

    ### Instructions

    * For the cooking liquid, place the cinnamon stick and cloves in a dry, deep saucepan over medium heat and toast for 1-2 minutes, until fragrant. Add the coconut milk, 100ml water and the bay leaf, lemongrass, ginger, nutmeg, and lime leaves. Bring to a simmer, then remove the pan from the heat and leave aromatics to infuse for 30 minutes.
    * Rinse the rice until the water runs clear. Add the rice to the simmered coconut milk along with salt.
    * Place the pan over medium heat and bring to a gentle boil, stirring once so the rice doesn’t stick to the base of the pan. Turn the heat down to low, cover with a lid. Simmer for 15 minutes, then remove from the heat. Leave for 10 minutes, covered, to finish off the cooking.
    * When ready to serve, remove the lid from the pot then discard the lemongrass, cinnamon stick, bay leaf and lime leaf. Fluff the grains of the rice with a fork.
    * To serve, stir a drizzle of shallot oil or sesame oil through the rice and stir. Top with a handful of fried shallots and coconut chips.
