  1. In a large, deep non-stick skillet, sautée shallots and ginger in the infused coconut oil for 2-3 minutes.
  2. Add garlic and continue cooking for another minute. Add rice and cook for 2 more minutes, stirring constantly.
  3. Add creamed coconut, salt, ½ tsp turmeric, chili powder and pepper. Bring to a boil, cover and simmer for 40-45 minutes, until tender (but not mushy) and all the liquid has been absorbed.
  4. In the meantime, prepare the cashews: combine in a medium bowl with soy sauce, agave nectar, curry powder, ½ tsp turmeric and cayenne and toss well. Then, in a non-stick frying pan, cook at medium low heat for 3-5 minutes, stirring constantly so they do not catch.
  5. Once the rice is done and ready to serve, add cashews and chopped coriander and combine evenly.
