Instructions
1-Heat the coconut oil over medium heat and sauté the onion, garlic, and thyme sprigs until they become tender.

3-Lower the heat, add the water, cover the pan, and steam for 15 minutes for a soft texture or 10 minutes for a crunchier bite.
4-Remove the lid and season with the all-purpose seasoning, black pepper, dairy-free butter, and pink salt to taste; stir well to combine.
