Rice Pudding

7 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 teaspoon (5 mL) vegetable or canola oil
  • 1 cup (201 g) white basmati rice, washed thoroughly
  • 1/4- 1/2 cup (59-118 mL) sugar or agave nectar
  • 1 teaspoon (5 mL) seeds of green cardamom, lightly crushed
  • 1/2 cup (118 mL) golden raisins
  • 8 cups (1.89 L) milk (whole, low-fat, skim, or unsweetened soy)
  • 2 tablespoons (30 mL) finely chopped slivered almonds or pistachios

Directions

  1. 1
    Coat the bottom and sides of slow cooker with a thin layer of oil.
  2. 2
    Put the rice, sugar, cardamom, raisins, and milk in the slow cooker.
  3. 3
    If you are using agave nectar, I recommend adding it toward the end, as adding it early makes the dish pinkish-brown in color.
  4. 4
    It will be delicious either way.
  5. 5
    Cook on high for 3 hours, stirring once or twice.
  6. 6
    Be careful not to let it overcook, or the milk will separate.
  7. 7
    If there is any browned milk caked on the sides, just scrape it out with a spoon and discard before serving.
  8. 8
    Sprinkle chopped almonds or pistachios across the top, and serve hot or cold.
