Chantal’s Rice Pudding

#Dessert 

Ingredients:

  • 350g short-grain rice (Arborio in North America)
  • 1 vanilla bean (or two teaspoons vanilla extract)
  • 1 liter plant-based milk
  • 150g sugar (to taste / or 75g sugar + 2 tablespoons stevia extract)

Instructions:

  • Rinse the rice in water using a fine-mesh strainer
  • Cook the rice in boiling water (2 L) for 10 minutes
  • Drain the rice, rinse with hot water for a less “sticky” rice pudding
  • Bring the milk to a boil with the vanilla, as soon as it boils add the rice
  • Lower the heat (2.5/10 for electric) and let cook for about fifteen minutes or until the rice reaches the desired consistency ** Stir regularly with a wooden spoon to check that it’s not burning at the bottom of the pot (every 5 minutes)
  • At the end of cooking, add the sugar/stevia: mix well
  • Let it cool down: it’s delicious as is!
  • Also excellent cold

Variations:

  • Three teaspoons of orange blossom water instead of vanilla…
  • Two teaspoons of cinnamon instead of vanilla
  • Replace part of the milk with coconut milk

Notes:

  • One batch for 2-3 hungry people
  • Double the batch for 4-6 hungry people
  • If too dry, add a little milk after cooking
  • Store in a sealed container in the refrigerator (keeps for a long time, though that almost never happens!)
