1 jar of Uncle Ben's thai coconut curry (+ water to rinse out the jar)
1 120g pack of baby corn
1 tin pineapple chunks (drained)
50g sachet coconut cream

1 cup coconut milk
3/4 cup water

2. Cook on low for 7 hours
3. After 7 hours, remove the lid and add the pineapple chunks, and coconut cream and mix well. Leave the lid off to allow the sauce to thicken for 30 mins.
4. While the sauce is thickening, make the rice. Add the coconut milk, water, brown sugar and salt to a large saucepan and bring to a simmer.
5. Stir in the rice, reduce heat to medium-low, cover with a lid but leave small gap so the steam can escape, and simmer for 12 minutes.
