White Chocolate And Cardamom Rice Pudding With Marmalade And Cointreau Sauce Recipes

WHITE CHOCOLATE PUDDING

Steps:

• For the crumb base: Throw the cookies and melted butter into a food processor and pulverize. Spoon some into the bottom of the serving glasses and set aside.
• For the pudding: Combine the sugar, cornstarch and salt in a medium saucepan. Stir or whisk together. Pour in the milk and egg yolks and whisk together. Add the vanilla. Stir over medium heat until the mixture just barely comes to a boil and becomes thick, 6 to 8 minutes (maybe less, maybe more; just watch it!). The second it starts to bubble and thicken (note: it should be thick like pudding!), remove it from the heat. Add the white chocolate and butter and stir until everything is beautifully combined.
• Pour the pudding into the glasses on top of the crumb base. Serve warm or chill in the fridge for 2 hours. Decorate with grated semisweet chocolate.

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.
