Yum and bravo! Coconut milk is an excellent source of fat (lauric acid) which studies have shown lowers blood cholesterol. Look it up! Turmeric is one of the healthiest ingredients you can use too. :)

Too high in carbohydrates (that is a lot of rice!) and fat (coconut milk is too high in fat). Recommend using brown or long-grain rice; 1/4 cup coconut milk, 3.4 cup fat-free Half and Half. You also could use less oil, maybe 1 tbsp + 1 tsp.
