Indian Rice Pudding – Indian Food

TOTAL TIME
30mins
PREP 5 MINS
COOK 25 MINS

INGREDIENTSNutrition

4-6 US
  • 1cup cooked long-grain rice or 1 cup basmati rice
  • 1cup whole milk
  • 12cup heavy cream
  • 34cup coconut milk
  • 2ounces sugar, approximately 1/4 cup
  • 14teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1 12ounces golden raisins, approximately 1/3 cup
  • 1 12ounces chopped unsaltedpistachios, approximately 1/3 cup

DIRECTIONS

  1. In a large nonstick sauté pan over medium heat, combine cooked rice and whole milk. Heat until mixture begins to boil.
  2. Decrease heat to low and cook to a simmer, stirring frequently, until mixture begins to thicken, approximately 5 minutes.
  3. Increase heat to medium, add heavy cream, coconut milk, sugar, and cardamom. Continue to cook until mixture just begins to thicken again, approximately 5-10 minutes. Use a whisk to prevent the cardamom from clumping.
  4. Once mixture begins to thicken, remove from heat and stir in raisins and pistachios.
  5. Transfer the mixture to individual serving dishes or a glass bowl and place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding.
  6. Serve chilled or at room temperature.
  7. Note: The mixture may not seem thick enough when you remove it from the heat, but once you add the raisins and pistachios and chill, it will get nice and creamy. I like my rice pudding a little sweet, so I also added a little bit more sugar than the 2 oz. called for in the recipe to suit my personal taste.
