1/2 cup white basmati rice
a 13- to 14-ounce can light unsweetened coconut milk
1 1/4 cups whole milk
1/2 cup sugar
1 1/2 to 2 teaspoons finely grated fresh lime zest
Garnish if desired: sweetened flaked coconut, toasted
In a bowl soak rice in cold water to cover 30 minutes. Drain rice in a sieve. In a 2- to 3-quart heavy saucepan bring coconut milk, whole milk, rice, sugar, and a pinch salt to a boil and gently simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, 25 minutes. Remove pan from heat.
Stir lime zest into pudding. Divide pudding among four 2/3-cup custard cups. Puddings may be made 2 days ahead and chilled, covered.
Serve puddings warm or chilled and garnish with flaked coconut.

Coconut Macaroons
3 cups shredded coconut
1 1/2 Tbsp cornstarch
3/4 cup sugar
3 egg whites
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, broken up
Heat oven to 350ºF. Mix coconut, cornstarch, sugar, egg whites and vanilla in a heat proof bowl. Set bowl over a pot of boiling water (or use a double boiler). Heat stirring until mixture thickens, about 4 minutes. Remove from heat and set aside.
Spoon out macaroons, about a scan tablespoon each, and place on ungreased baking sheet.
Bake at 350ºF for 10 to 15 minutes or until lightly golden but still soft and chewy. Remove to a wire rack to cool.
Place chocolate in a small microwave-safe bowl and heat on HIGH power for 1 minute. Stir until smooth, microwaving move if needed. Dip bottoms of cookies in chocolate, allowing excess to drip back into bowl. Place on a waxed-paper-lined baking sheet in refrigerator to set.
