Ingredients
- 200 g short-grain rice
- 400 ml coconut milk
- 600 ml almond milk
- 50 ml maple syrup
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1 cinnamon stick
- 1 pinch of salt
- 100 g fresh berries (optional)
- 50 g chopped nuts (optional)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the short-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the coconut milk, almond milk, and a pinch of salt. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat.
Step 3
Stir in the rinsed rice, cinnamon stick, and vanilla extract into the simmering milk mixture.
Step 4
Reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a lid. Allow the rice to cook slowly, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking, for about 30-35 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the liquid.
Step 5
Once the rice is cooked, remove the saucepan from the heat and discard the cinnamon stick. Stir in the maple syrup for sweetness.
Step 6
Let the milchreis sit for 5 minutes allowing it to thicken further.
Step 7
Serve warm, topped with fresh berries and chopped nuts for added texture and flavor, if desired.
