Vanilla Rice Pudding With Glazed Oranges Orange Cardamom Madeleines And Orange Sabayon Recipes

RICE PUDDING WITH VANILLA BEAN, ORANGE AND RUM

Steps:

• Combine the milk and rice in a heavy medium saucepan. Scrape in the seeds from the vanilla bean; add the bean. Bring the milk to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until the rice is tender, stirring frequently, about 25 minutes. Mix in the sugar, rum, and orange peel. Discard the vanilla bean. Cook until the mixture thickens, 5 to10 minutes longer.
• Spoon the rice pudding into bowls. Cover and refrigerate until cold, about 5 hours. Serve with orange segments.

BAKED CARDAMOM-SCENTED RICE PUDDING WITH ORANGES IN HONEY & POMEGRANATE SYRUP

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2 and butter a wide 1.5-litre ovenproof baking dish. Put the butter, sugar, cardamom, pudding rice and milk in a saucepan and bring gently to the boil, stirring to help the sugar dissolve. Add the cream, a pinch of salt, orange zest and vanilla and bring to a simmer. Simmer for about 4 mins, stirring, until you can feel that the rice grains have become slightly swollen. Pour into the buttered baking dish and bake for 2 hrs, uncovered. The rice should be cooked but not dry or sticky. It might need a little longer, but keep an eye on it.
• Meanwhile, make the compote. Heat the orange juice, pomegranate juice, molasses, honey and sugar, stirring to help the sugar dissolve. Simmer for 8 mins until reduced slighty. Transfer to a jug. If you have more than 300ml, reduce it by boiling a bit more. The mixture will thicken as it cools. Strain, cover and chill in the fridge.
• Cut the top and bottom off the oranges to form a flat base. Using a sharp serrated knife, cut away the pith and peel. Cut the fruit into slices, catching any juice if you can (add it to the syrup). Put the oranges in a bowl, pour on the syrup and serve with the rice pudding.

MADELEINES

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Break up the eggs with a whisk. Beat in sugar in a stream and add orange flower water. Beat by hand several minutes until frothy. Sift flour and fold in flour alternately with cooled, melted butter.
• Butter and flour Madeleine pans and fill 2/3 full with batter. Bake about 10 minutes. Unmold the Madeleines immediately and when cool, dust with confectioners' sugar.

ORANGE COCONUT RICE PUDDING WITH HOMEMADE VANILLA SUGAR

Steps:

• Add the rice, salt, 1 can of coconut milk and 1 1/2 cups water to a medium saucepan. Bring the mixture to a boil, then reduce the heat to low, cover the pan and cook until almost all of the liquid is absorbed, about 18 minutes.
• Meanwhile, add the Vanilla Sugar, orange zest and remaining can of coconut milk to a small saucepan. Bring the mixture to a low simmer, stirring regularly, until the sugar has dissolved, about 3 minutes. Once the mixture is at a simmer, turn off the heat.
• After the rice has cooked for 18 minutes, add the coconut milk-orange zest mixture to the rice and continue to cook over low until the rice is very tender and creamy, an additional 15 minutes.
• Add the sugar to a food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Slice open the vanilla bean pods and use the back of a knife to scrape out the seeds. Add the seeds to the food processor with the sugar and blend for about a minute, until the vanilla beans are evenly distributed. Pour the vanilla sugar into an airtight container and add 1 of the scraped vanilla bean pods.

ORANGE-CARDAMOM MADELEINES

Steps:

• Brush molds of a madeleine pan with butter; set aside. Make the batter: Melt butter in a small saucepan over low heat. Remove from heat, and stir in honey and vanilla. Let cool 10 minutes.
• Whisk flour, baking powder, cardamom, and salt in a small bowl; set aside.
• Preheat oven to 325, with rack in center. Stir together sugar and eggs in a medium bowl. Gently fold in flour mixture until combined. Add butter mixture, and fold until combined. Cover with plasticwrap, and refrigerate 30 minutes.
• Spoon batter into prepared pan, filling each mold halfway. Tap pan on work surface to eliminate air bubbles. Bake until cookies are puffed and edges are golden, 7 to 8 minutes. Transfer pan to a wirerack; let cool slightly. Unmold cookies onto rack, and let cool completely.
• Make the orange glaze: Stir together sugar and orange zest and juice in a small bowl until glaze is smooth, thick, and opaque. Using a small pastry brush, coat ridged side of each cookie with glaze. Let set 15 minutes. Cookies can be stored in a single layer in an airtight container up to 3 days.

VANILLA RICE PUDDINGS WITH GLAZED ORANGES

Steps:

• Make the glazed oranges: Bring a large pot of water to a gentle boil. Add oranges, and cook until almost translucent, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer to a baking sheet.
• Cut a parchment circle to fit a large, shallow saucepan. Bring water, honey, and sugar to a boil in the pan, stirring to dissolve sugar and honey. Add oranges, and place parchment directly on surface. Reduce heat, and gently simmer until oranges are soft and liquid has reduced to a syrup, about 24 minutes. Let cool. (Oranges and syrup can be refrigerated in an airtight container up to 1 week.)
• Make the rice pudding: Put rice, water, milk, sugar, vanilla bean and seeds, and salt into a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring occasionally. Reduce heat. Cover, and simmer until almost all of the liquid has been absorbed, 16 to 17 minutes. Remove from heat, and stir until smooth. Transfer to a bowl; let cool. Discard vanilla bean.
• Beat cream until very soft peaks form. Fold into rice mixture. Divide pudding among serving dishes; top with orange slices, and drizzle with syrup.
