Rice Pudding
This recipe makes 5 servings
Gail is a lover of South Asian sweets, such as this traditional rice pudding called Firni that has a base of rice flour and accents of pistachios and rose water. Rose water is a delicate flavouring that is available at South Asian specialty stores.
Ingredients
- 4 cups homogenized milk
- 1/4 cup rice flour
- 2 tbsp granulated sugar
- 1/2 tsp rose water
- 1/2 tsp butter
- 1 tbsp raisins
- 1 tbsp shelled chopped pistachio nuts
Preparation
In heavy saucepan, bring milk to boil; whisk in rice flour and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened enough to coat back of spoon, about 8 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Stir in rose water. Pour into five 3/4-cup (175 mL) ramekins or custard cups. Place on tray; cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or for up to 12 hours.
In small skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat; cook raisins until plump, about 2 minutes. Let cool. Sprinkle raisins and pistachios over puddings.
