Ingredients:
- 1 cup (200g) Arborio rice
- 2 ½ cups (600ml) silk coconut milk
- 1 ½ cups (360ml) water
- ½ cup (100g) granulated sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- Shredded coconut, toasted (for topping)
- Fresh mango slices (optional, for serving)
- Ground cinnamon (optional, for serving)
Instructions:
- Rinse the Arborio rice under cold water until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.
- In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, silk coconut milk, water, sugar, and salt.
- Bring the mixture to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
- Reduce heat to low and let the mixture simmer for about 25-30 minutes, stirring frequently, until the rice is tender and the pudding has thickened.
- Once done, stir in the vanilla extract and cook for an additional minute to infuse the flavor.
- If the pudding is too thick, add a bit more silk coconut milk or water to reach desired consistency.
- Transfer to serving bowls, garnish with toasted coconut, and optional toppings like fresh mango or a sprinkle of cinnamon.
