Method
step 1
Cook the rice in a pan, uncovered, with the coconut milk, butter, some salt and 250ml water over a medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, cover and turn the heat to low. Simmer until the liquid has been absorbed, about 10-12 mins. Take off the heat and leave covered for 10 mins, then fluff with a fork.
step 2
Heat the coconut oil in a large pan and fry the onion, garlic, spring onion, red pepper and sprouts for 3-4 mins. Add the remaining veg, thyme and coconut, and cook for a few minutes. Stir in the rice and soy. Serve sprinkled with the parsley and pomegranate seeds.
