📖 The Story Behind This Dish

On Equatorial Guinea's coast, where coconut palms abound, rice cooked in coconut milk and water accompanies fish dishes. Gently sweet and fragrant, it pairs well with spicy pepesup or grilled fish.

🌆 Where it's eaten: In a Malabo kitchen, the lid comes off a pot in a waft of coconut, and glossy white rice is spooned beside grilled fish.
