Description

Rice pudding is a comforting dessert that is enjoyed all over the world. It is a creamy, sweet dish that is made with rice, milk, sugar, and a variety of spices. This recipe uses basmati rice, which is a long-grain rice that is commonly used in Indian cuisine. The basmati rice gives the pudding a lovely aroma and texture that sets it apart from other varieties.

Prep Time

The prep time for this recipe is approximately 10 minutes.

Cook Time

The cook time for this recipe is approximately 30-40 minutes.

Ingredients

  • 1 cup basmati rice
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 1 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 cup raisins (optional)

Equipment

  • Medium-sized saucepan
  • Wooden spoon
  • Measuring cups and spoons
  • Bowl (optional for raisins)

Method

  1. Start by rinsing the rice in cold water until the water runs clear. This will help remove any excess starch and prevent the pudding from becoming too sticky.
  2. Add the rice, milk, heavy cream, sugar, cinnamon stick, cardamom, nutmeg, and salt to a medium-sized saucepan.
  3. Stir the ingredients together until the sugar has dissolved.
  4. Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a simmer.
  5. Lower the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the pudding for 25-30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan. The pudding should be thick and creamy.
  6. Remove the cinnamon stick from the pudding and stir in the vanilla extract.
  7. If using raisins, place them in a bowl and cover with hot water. Let them soak for 10 minutes, then drain and stir into the pudding.
  8. Remove the pudding from the heat and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving.
  9. You can serve the pudding warm or chilled. If serving chilled, cover the pudding with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours before serving.
  10. Garnish with a sprinkle of cinnamon and chopped nuts, if desired.

Notes

Rice pudding can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. If the pudding becomes too thick after refrigeration, simply stir in a little milk to loosen it up.

Recipe Tips

For a creamier pudding, you can replace some of the milk with more heavy cream. You can also experiment with different spices to achieve your desired flavor. Some popular options include ginger, cloves, and saffron. Finally, be sure to keep a close eye on the pudding as it cooks to prevent it from burning or sticking to the bottom of the pan.
