Frushi - cooking recipe

Ingredients

1 1/4 cups water
1 cup sushi rice or 1 cup short-grain rice, uncooked
1/4 cup sugar
1/4 cup light coconut milk
1 dash salt
cooking spray
10 mandarin orange sections
20 berries (fresh strawberries, raspberries, or blackberries)

Preparation

Bring water and rice to a boil in a medium saucepan. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 15 minutes or until water is almost absorbed. Remove from heat; let stand, covered, 15 minutes.
Place rice in a large bowl. Add sugar, coconut milk, and salt, stirring gently until well combined. Cover and let stand 20 minutes.
Lightly coat hands with cooking spray. Divide rice mixture into 20 equal portions, shaping each into a ball (about 1 rounded tablespoon each). Lightly press each rice ball into an oval between palms; place ovals on a bakaing sheet lined with wax paper. Top each oval with the oranges and berries and press gently to adhere. Chill until ready to serve. If desired, serve with your favorite flavored yogurt for dipping.
