Cool. Rinse rice in a big bowl with cool water till water runs clear. Tip off the liquid rice. Mix rice, coconut cream, sugar, salt, and water in a (2 cups) mid-sized saucepan. Bring just to a boil, mixing to dissolve sugar, next put a lid on plus reduce heat to low. (Alternatively, heat rice in an electric rice steamer.) Heat till rice is tender plus liquid is absorbed, 40–45 minutes. Fluff rice using a fork; put a lid on and leave to sit for 20 minutes.
Storage
