  • Place the black rice and coconut milk in a saucepan and bring to the boil.
  • Reduce heat to a bare simmer and cook, covered for 35–40 mins or until softened.
  • Sweeten to taste using preferred sweetener (I used a few drops of liquid stevia).
  • If required, add a touch of extra coconut milk to bring the rice to a lovely creamy consistency.
  • Toss the roasted rhubarb ingredients together in a bowl, then spread out in a single layer on a baking tray and bake for 10–15 mins.
  • Serve the rice with a luscious dollop of coconut yoghurt and rhubarb on top.
