Ingredients
1 ½ cups whole milk¼ cup whole milk powderpinch saffron (optional)1 cup cooked brown basmati rice¾ cup full-fat, canned coconut milk¼ cup coconut sugar¼ tsp ground cardamom¼ tsp ground cinnamon⅓ cup raisins, soaked in warm water and drained¼ cup chopped soft dates (soak with the raisins if they're too dry)
Directions
In a large pot over medium heat, combine the milk, milk powder, saffron (if using) and cooked rice, whisking well.
Heat until the mixture begins to boil, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring often, until the mixture begins to thicken – about 5 minutes.
Increase the heat to medium and add the coconut milk, coconut sugar, cardamom and cinnamon.
Continue to cook, stirring, until the mixture just begins to thicken again, approximately 5 to 10 minutes.
When mixture begins to thicken, remove from the heat and stir in the raisins and dates.
Serve warm, room temperature or chilled – if chilling, cover the surface directly with plastic wrap
to avoid forming a “skin”.
