Coconut Milk Rice With Peas is a creamy, fragrant dish rooted in tropical cuisine, popular in regions including South Asia, the Caribbean, and Southeast Asia. Made by simmering rice in rich coconut milk and pairing it with vibrant green peas, this dish often includes aromatic spices like garlic, ginger, or bay leaves for added depth of flavor. Coconut milk lends a velvety texture while providing healthy fats that support energy and absorption of fat-soluble vitamins. The peas contribute a pop of sweetness, fiber, and plant-based protein, promoting digestive health and satiety. Though nutrient-dense, coconut milk is high in saturated fats, so moderation is key for heart health. This versatile dish can be served as a satisfying side or enjoyed as a main with plant-based additions or lean proteins.
