(STEP BY STEP)
To start making the coconut rice is necessary to prepare the coconut milk, for this we need 2 coconuts, (the white part) we cut into small pieces as much as we can, to not strain the blender much as the coconut is hard, we put it in the blender together with 2 water rate and liquefy.
We pass the blender mixture through a sieve so that we only have the liquid (milk) and not the solid (coconut).
NOTE: this coconut that we have left can be placed in a pot with sugar and prepare some delicious cocadas to avoid losing anything of the coconut.
NOTE: This milk can be sweetened to taste and we have a tasty and natural coconut milk.
Now to prepare the coconut rice! ; Place the bowl of white rice with the two cups of water and cinnamon in a deep-bottomed pot, bring it to boil for eight minutes or until the rice is still hot.
After the rice is soft but not watered we add the two cups of coconut milk already prepared and the half cup of sugar.
We stir constantly so that the rice does not stick, until it becomes creamy and then add the condensed milk.
We serve it in separate containers or in a large container, let it cool to room temperature and then refrigerate it, you can eat it hot, at room temperature or cold, as you like.

CURIOUS FACT: you knew that the name of the coconut was given because it has three little holes that look like two eyes and a mouth; This name is what they used to scare children who behaved badly, telling them that the coconut would come for them ...
Tropical fruit,
Cold or natural,
Its water and its pulp,
It's sweet and delicious,
Brushed or in ice cream,
In sweet or majarete,
It is delicious to taste.
