Coconut Jook With Sweet Potato
- Coconut Jook (RIce Porridge)
- 1 cup Brown Rice
- 7 cups Not Chicken Broth or Veggie Broth
- 2 cups Coconut Milk
- 3 tablespoons Fresh, Peeled Ginger (mince it or leave it whole)
- Extra Coconut Milk or Water
- Salt to Taste
- Coconut Sweet Potatoes
- 2 pounds Sweet Potatoes
- 1/4 cup Shredded Coconut
- 2 ounces Ginger, Minced and Peeled
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
- Cooking the Jook is a long process that can be done on the stove, or in a crock pot. It can take 1-2 hrs on the stove cooking at medium.
- Measure out all ingredients
- Measure your rice out and place in a deep pot.
- Add your Broth choice to pot along with the Coconut Milk
- Add your Ginger to the pot. I prefer to use minced ginger because I like to eat it. If you don't wish to eat the ginger, leave it whole so it can be removed.
- Bring the pot to a boil, and lower the temperature to a simmer and cover. rnThe rice will become soft and swollen, breaking down becoming mush and thickening as it cooks. I keep extra coconut milk/water on hand to thin the mixture out.rnThe proper consistency of Jook shouldn't be thin like soup, nor should it be thick like Oatmeal. A happy medium would be creamy.
- Coconut Sweet Potatoes
- Peel and dice the sweet potatoes into bite-sized cubes
- Boil the sweet potatoes, cooking until fork tender. Do not Overcook
- Drain the Sweet Potatoes and leave cool until you can handle them safely.
- In a bowl measure out your Shredded Coconut, Ginger, Garlic Powder, and Cinnamon.
- Add the sweet potatoes to the bowl and mix until evenly and fully coated
