Bring the coconut milk and 300ml water to the boil in a large saucepan and add the rice, cover and cook gently for 5 minutes, stirring occasionally. Add the beans and cook for a further 5-7 minutes until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed. Allow to cool, then stir in the salad onions and coriander.
