Coconut Jasmine Rice

Sweet rice, warm fruit and fresh basil … a divine combination that could be dessert! Sautéing the mango slices in neutral-tasting canola oil is key to keeping the tropical flavors in this dish clean and clear. The rice goes well with Turkey and Plantain Stuffed Poblano Chiles.
