- Mix well, cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook until the vegetables are tender, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rice, tomato, basil, cilantro, almond milk, and coconut extract.
- Stir well, then cook until heated through, 2 to 3 minutes.
- Serve hot, on plates or in bowls, with chopsticks if you like.
Note: Coconut extract mixed into rice milk or almond milk makes a wonderful substitution in recipes calling for coconut milk.
