Ingredients
- 0.75 cup Jasmine rice
- 1 can (13.5 oz) Full-fat coconut milk
- 1.5 cups Whole milk
- 0.5 cup Granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon Ground cardamom
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 2 tablespoons Toasted coconut flakes(optional)
- 1 tablespoon Chopped pistachios(optional)
Instructions
- 1
Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
- 2
In a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, whole milk, sugar, and salt.
- 3
Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium-high heat, stirring frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
- 4
Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot partially, and simmer for 30 to 35 minutes.
- 5
Stir the pudding every 10 minutes to ensure a creamy consistency and to check that the liquid hasn't evaporated too quickly.
- 6
Once the rice is tender and the mixture has thickened to a porridge-like consistency, stir in the ground cardamom and vanilla extract.
- 7
Remove from heat and let the pudding sit for 5 minutes; it will continue to thicken as it cools.
- 8
Serve warm or chilled, garnished with toasted coconut flakes and chopped pistachios if desired.
