Ingredients
- 1 cup Jasmine rice
- 2 cups Coconut milk
- 1 cup Water
- 0.333 cup Sugar
- 1 teaspoon Vanilla extract
- 0.25 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground cinnamon (optional, for garnish)
- 2 tablespoons Shredded coconut (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the jasmine rice under cold water until the water runs clear, then drain it.
Step 2
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, coconut milk, water, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer. Stir frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
Step 4
Once the mixture begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and cover the saucepan with a lid, leaving it slightly ajar to allow steam to escape.
Step 5
Cook the rice pudding for 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the mixture has thickened to a creamy consistency.
Step 6
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the pudding sit for 5 minutes to cool slightly and thicken further.
Step 7
Spoon the coconut rice pudding into serving bowls. Garnish with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon and shredded coconut, if desired.
Step 8
Serve warm or chilled, depending on your preference. Store any leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
