This is the easiest rice that you'll ever make. No, seriously - ready in under 40 minutes this coconut rice bake is topped with sticky gochujang carrots and an asian salad for a hit of freshness. We've cooked the rice in coconut milk in order to get a creamy rich flavour as well as white miso for a hit of umami. Topped with rainbow baby carrots roasted to sticky perfection and glazed in a rich gochujang sauce - check out the recipe below!
