It’s a simple dessert that I thoroughly enjoy. Simple to make and quite wholesome. I adapted to suite a lactose intolerant friend of mine.

Ingredients:

  • 1cup Water
  • 3/4cup Almond Milk
  • 1/4tsp Salt

  • 1tsp Dairy Free Butter
  • 1cup Soy Cream
  • 1tsp Vanilla Extract
  • 2 Egg Yolks
  • 1/3cup of Sugar

Preparation:

  1. Put the milk, water and salt in a saucepan and heat over medium heat
  2. When it gets to a soft boil add the rice and butter
  3. Cover with the lid and leave to simmer for about 25 to 30mins until it gets quite thicc with the rice having absorbed most of the liquid part
  4. Stir often while cooking it

  7. Heat to boil
  8. In a bowl whisk together the egg yolks and sugar
  9. Slowly add the cream and vanilla to the eggs and sugar mix
  10. Return the mix to the pot and cook over low heat for 5mins or until it thiccens
  11. Put together the sauce and the rice
  12. You can serve warm or chilled depending on preference
  13. You can be proud for pudding rice back on the dessert menu

Tips:

  • Depending on the milk used and or preference you might want to leave it to boil for longer to get a creamier, denser texture
  • If you want the whole pudding to be thiccer you can add some more cream, yogurt or coconut cream to it at the end

Recommendations:

  • Some cinnamon goes very well on top
  • Jam can be used to sweeten it even further when serving although to me that is a bit too much
  • You can mix in some dried fruit in it for extra flavour

Possible Substitutions:

  • You can substitute the dairy free butter with coconut oil or cream
  • You can substitute the egg yolks with a mix of bananas and coconut cream
  • You can use Oat or Soy milk or a mixture of milk alternatives including Rice milk and Coconut milk
  • You can use Carnaroli rice or any other starchy rice for this
