Ingredients

Scale

Ingredients

  • 1 cup jasmine rice
  • 2 cups coconut milk
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 2 tablespoons sugar (adjust to taste)
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • 1 ripe mango, peeled and diced

Instructions

  1. Prepare the rice: Rinse the jasmine rice under cold running water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch. This helps prevent the pudding from becoming too sticky.
  2. Simmer rice in coconut milk: In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, and water. Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, then reduce the heat to low and let it simmer uncovered. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
  3. Add sugar and vanilla: Once the rice is tender and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency, about 20-25 minutes, stir in the sugar and vanilla extract. Adjust sweetness according to your taste.
  4. Incorporate mango: Remove the pudding from heat and fold in the diced ripe mango gently, reserving a few pieces for garnish if desired. The residual heat will warm the mango without cooking it.
  5. Serve: Serve the pudding warm or chilled, garnished with the reserved mango pieces. Enjoy this tropical treat as a dessert or a sweet snack.

Notes

  • Use jasmine or sushi rice for the creamiest texture.
  • For a thicker pudding, reduce the amount of water slightly.
  • Adjust the sweetness as needed by adding more or less sugar.
  • You can serve the pudding warm or cold, depending on your preference.
  • For added texture, sprinkle toasted coconut flakes or chopped nuts on top before serving.
