A Samoan recipe for Extension

In Extension, we are making a cookbook with homemade recipes of food we are already eating at home. It will be a combination of dinner and desert recipes. We have different Pacific Island students in Extension so we have come up with a few Island dishes. Last weekend I learnt how to make alaisa fa'apopo, or in English its called Coconut Rice.

Ingredients
3cups of rice, half a can of coconut cream and a pinch of salt

Equipment:
a rice cooker {or a pot} and a bowl

Step 1: Cook your rice as you would normally cook it.

Step 2: In a bowl, pour half a can of coconut cream and then add a pinch of salt to it and mix.

Step 3: Make wells in your cooked rice and pour the coconut cream mixture in evenly. Mix together.

Step 4: Serve and eat when its hot. {My Dad loves this with Koko Samoa which is Samoan cocoa. It tastes way different to cocoa you buy in the shop}
