Third step,After the rice turned yellow pour out the tumeric water(this is because if you use the tumeric water to cook the rice it will taste bitter and you wont want to eat tumeric crumbs), after that add just a little(half box like in the photo) coconut oil to the rice and put in the lemon grass and salam leaf/bay leaf.
