Creamy Rice Pudding With Cardamom Recipes

INDIAN RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• In a large nonstick saute pan over medium heat, combine the cooked rice and milk. Heat until the mixture begins to boil. Decrease the heat to low and cook at a simmer until the mixture begins to thicken, stirring frequently, approximately 5 minutes.
• Increase the heat to medium, add the heavy cream, coconut milk, sugar, and cardamom and continue to cook until the mixture just begins to thicken again, approximately 5 to 10 minutes. Use a whisk to help prevent the cardamom from clumping. Once the mixture just begins to thicken, remove from the heat and stir in the raisins and pistachios. Transfer the mixture to individual serving dishes or a glass bowl and place plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding. Serve chilled or at room temperature.

RICE PUDDING WITH CARDAMOM

Steps:

• In a saucepan, melt the butter at medium heat. Add rice, cardamom, cinnamon and stir to coat the rice. Add milk and sugar and bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover and let simmer, stirring often, 25 to 30 minutes or until almost all liquid has absorbed and rice is tender. (You can prepare this step in advance, let cool and put in an hermetic container. It will be good up to the next day in the fridge). Serve the rice pudding warm, sprinkle with pistachios and honey.
