This is so simple and so good! I replicated this recipe from my favorite Thai restaurant in Atlanta. Serve tofu over the rice and drizzle generously with green curry sauce!

1 ½ cups water
1 cup uncooked basmati rice, rinsed and drained
3 tablespoons sesame oil
1 (14 ounce) package firm water-packed tofu, drained and cubed
¼ teaspoon salt
1 (10 ounce) can coconut milk

Place water in a medium saucepan, and stir in the rice. Bring to a boil. Cover, reduce heat, and simmer 20 minutes. Remove from heat, cool slightly, and fluff with a fork.
