Ingredients (use vegan versions):
- 1 cup cream of rice
- 3 cups water
- 3/4 cup sweetener, or to taste
- 1/2 teaspoon each of ground caraway,
- chopped nuts (walnuts, pine nuts, almonds, or whatever you like)
- Optional syrup:
- 1 cup vegan sugar
- 1 cup water
- 1/4 teaspoon orange blossom water
Directions:
Mix the cream of rice and water in a
saucepan until smooth. Slowly bring to
a simmer, then cook over a low heat till
thick and well cooked, about 15
minutes, stirring constantly. Add the
sweetener and spices (if using) and
continue to stir till thoroughly mixed.
Pour the pudding into custard cups
and chill till set. Serve with chopped
nuts on top.
Some people make this pudding
without the spices and with less
sweetener, then serve it unmolded on
a plate with syrup and chopped nuts.
To make the syrup, cook the vegan sugar
and water together for about 10
minutes, remove from heat and then
add the orange blossom water. If the
pudding is not as thick or as thin as
you like it, adjust the amount of water
next time. The syrup keeps forever; try
it in iced tea!
Serves: varies
Preparation time: 15 minutes
