Citizens – rice pudding is one of my all-time favorite desserts and I believe you will find favor with my recipe, which is closely related to the Indian rice pudding known as Kheer.
I prefer an east/west hybrid version using both milk, cream and coconut milk plus rose water, red dried cranberries, golden raisins and green pistachios!
Truly a jewel-like, colorful and delicious dessert that I hope you will try at your earliest convenience! 🙂 My use of vanilla, nutmeg and cardamom as a complex interplay of flavors truly completes the dish!
