Rice Pudding.

Has anyone got a really good recipe for rice pudding?

 

I use Delia's recipe but it doesn't turn out like the stuff from a tin. It is a lot tastier but a lot stiffer. You could use more milk and experiment. Cheers, Tony.

 

Thanks Tony...I'll have a look at Delia's recipe.

 

Mine is basmati rice (unwashed), coconut milk, palm sugar and green cardamom pods. Add some freshly grated nutmeg too if you wish. Put it in a saucepan and cook on a very gentle simmer (stops the coconut milk splitting) until the rice is tender. If it's drying out add ordinary milk and a little creamed coconut. When the rice is done I sometimes add some chopped fresh fruit (such as lychee or mango) and cook for just a minute more. Remove the cardomom pods before serving.

 

I like the one from the tin - I use half milk, half Carnation milk - gives a similar creamy taste.
