Coconut Rice

very good, one of my favorite thai restaurants is 'the king and i' in edmonton canada. they serve the best coconut rice i've ever had. this recipe comes very close to it, however when i made it , i added 2 1/2 t. spoons of sugar instead of one. still not quite as sweet , next time i'll add three. thanx for the recipe.
