Mango And Coconut Rice Pudding
This is adapted from a recipe given to me by a caterer that i have worked with. It is similar to other recipes on zaar but i love this one for its simplicity and warm, fresh flavour so thought i would post it anyway.
Steps
Add the rice and water to a medium pan and simmer , covered , until the rice is cooked and the water has almost all been absorbed.
When the rice is cooked , add the cream of coconut , milk , light brown sugar and cinnamon to the pan and stir.
Once the liquid has had a chance to warm , taste it and add as much granulated sugar as needed to suit your preference , up to 1 / 4 cup.
Simmer the rice pudding for 40-45 minutes , checking and stirring frequently.
Meanwhile , peel and core the mango.
Finely dice the flesh and set aside.
When the rice pudding is nearly at the right consistency , add the diced mango and cook for another 2 minutes , to allow the mango to soften slightly.
Take off the heat and leave to stand for a few minutes for the flavours to blend.
Serve and enjoy !.
