INGREDIENTS
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 14 ounce can coconut milk
- ½ cup raw short or medium-grain rice
- ¼ teaspoon salt
- 2 to 3 inch cinnamon stick
- 2 large egg yolks
- ⅓ cup sugar
- 1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
- Toasted shredded coconut for garnish
INSTRUCTIONS
In a big, heavy saucepan, mix the rice, coconut, milk, and salt. Over high heat, bring to a boil while stirring continuously. After turning down the heat to low, add the cinnamon stick, cover, and simmer for fifteen minutes, stirring now and then.
After removing the cover, boil the rice for an additional 8 minutes or until it becomes cooked, stirring often. To avoid burning, stir virtually constantly toward the conclusion of cooking.
Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, and vanilla in a medium-sized bowl. Pour back into the pot and whisk in 1 cup of the cooked rice mixture. Cook for about a minute, stirring regularly, or until the mixture thickens and coats the back of the spoon. Take the pan off of the burner.
Transfer the pudding onto plates for dishing. Serve warm, cold, or room temperature, with toasted coconut as a garnish.

FAQs
Are There Other Toppings I Can Serve With Rice Pudding?
While coconut rice pudding tastes great on its own, you can make it even better by adding chopped nuts of your choice, homemade jam, caramel sauce, raisins, bananas, strawberries, blueberries, and chocolate chips or syrup. The options are virtually limitless; it all depends on your preferences!
Can This Rice Pudding Be Made In A Slow Cooker?
Yes, it can! Nevertheless, it may have a bit more mushy texture when it comes out. In the slow cooker, add all the ingredients and stir to mix. For 2 to 2 ½ hours, cook on high, stirring from time to time. If the pudding is too thick, add extra milk.
How To Make The Recipe
Combine the uncooked rice, coconut milk, whole milk, salt, and cinnamon stick in a big saucepan with a heavy bottom. Over medium-high heat, bring this to a mild boil while whisking continually. Cover, lower the heat to a low, and cook the food gradually. After 15 minutes of simmering, stir occasionally. After uncovering, boil the rice for a little while more, stirring often, until it becomes soft and the pudding thickens. Ten minutes or so more.
Whisk the egg yolks, sugar, cardamom, and vanilla extract together in a medium-sized bowl. Pour one cup of the cooked rice mixture into the bowl gradually while continuing to stir. Return the mixture to the saucepan and cook, stirring nearly all the time, over medium-low heat until it thickens and coats the back of the spoon. Approximately one minute. Take the pan off of the burner.
