Nutty Rice Pudding (India) Recipe
Servings: 8
Ingredients
- Â Â INGREDIENTS
- 100 gm Rice
- 4 c. Whole lowfat milk
- 400 gm Sweetened condensed lowfat milk
- Â Â Minced nuts like walnuts,
- Â Â Pistas, almonds
- Â Â Raisins (optional)
- 1 pch Cardamom pwdr (optional)
Directions
- Heat 1 tsp butter in a cooking dish and fry the rice till pale golden. (I usually use Basmati rice for this, but you can use any rice) Once the rice has fried, add in lowfat milk and cook and the rice. This will take 30 min, check and stir the rice and lowfat milk occasionally and be careful not to burn the bottom of the vessel ( a double-broiler works well here). After the rice is soft, add in the condensed lowfat milk and cook for another 7-10 mins stirring constantly unti the pudding reaches the consistency you like best.
- Remove from fire and serve garnished with nuts, cardamom pwdr and raisins. The pudding can also be chilled and served cool. NOTES: If desired your pudding to be more sweet, add in a couple of tsp. of sugar to taste after you have added the condensed lowfat milk. Full-fat lowfat milk works best to get a creamy, thick pudding, if you are calorie and fat conscious, use skimmed lowfat milk to cook the rice. You can also use less or possibly more of rice in your pudding according to your taste and preference.
