Delicious Madagascar Pink Rice with Limequats, Dates and Toasted Coconut

IMG_6199

This rice is absolutely forking delicious and a completely original recipe by me! I was inspired by the flavors of Thai Stuffed Leaves called Miang Kum. I also had these Limquats and wanted to create something special with them. I remembered from eating Miang Kum how wonderful the whole lime pieces were. Normally I forking hate whole pieces of lime or lemon but with certain flavors they are magical and are like fireworks in your mouth.
