Add the coconut oil, garlic, and ginger to a medium-sized pot and heat to medium. Sauté until very fragrant, about 3 minutes. 4. Add the rice, turmeric and salt, and sauté an additional 2 to 3 minutes. 5. Add 2 cups of boiling water, reduce heat and simmer, covered until water is absorbed, about 30 to 35 minutes. 6. A few minutes before rice is finished cooking, stir the fresh lemon juice and dried cranberries into the rice. Re-place the cover and continue to cook. 7. Serve with fresh cilantro and pine nuts alongside your favorite main dish.
