Ingredients:

Quantity Ingredient
6 Basmati rice
3/4 Half-and-half
1 Vanilla
3 Vanilla bean
3 Sugar
1/2 Splenda sugar substitute
6 Allspice berries
6 Cloves
1/2 Ground nutmeg
1 Cinnamon stick
6 Green cardamom pods

Instructions:

  1. Begin by slowly bringing the milk, basmati rice, 3/4 of your cinnamon stick, and a split vanilla bean (if available) to a gentle boil in a heavy pot. Allow it to simmer for approximately 45 to 50 minutes, ensuring to stir occasionally to prevent sticking or burning. 🥛🍚

  2. While the rice is simmering, prepare the spice mixture by grinding the remaining 1/4 of the cinnamon stick, allspice berries, cloves, and the seeds from the cardamom pods. This aromatic blend will infuse your pudding with irresistible flavors. 🔪🌿

  3. Once the rice has softened to perfection, remove the cinnamon stick and vanilla bean (if used). In a separate bowl, combine the half-and-half, egg yolks, vanilla extract (if you did not use a whole bean), spice mixture, and both sugars (regular and Splenda). This decadent mixture will add richness and depth to your pudding. 🥚🌰

  4. To prevent the eggs from curdling, temper the cream mixture by gradually adding a small amount of the hot milk and rice mixture while whisking continuously. Once tempered, pour the cream mixture into the pot with the rice and milk. Stir gently to combine. 🥄🔥

  5. Continue to cook the pudding over medium heat until it thickens to your desired consistency, typically about 10 minutes. Be sure to keep a close eye on it and stir frequently to avoid scorching. 🕒⏳

  6. Once the pudding has reached the desired thickness, remove it from the heat and pour it into your favorite serving dish or individual ramekins. For optimal flavor development, allow the pudding to cool slightly before transferring it to the refrigerator to chill for at least 2 hours. 🍨❄️

  7. When ready to serve, garnish with a sprinkle of ground nutmeg or a cinnamon stick for a touch of elegance. Then, dive in and savor each spoonful of this luscious Raj Rice Pudding with your loved ones. 🥄✨

Indulge in this exquisite treat and watch as it becomes a cherished favorite among your family and friends. Enjoy the creamy texture, fragrant spices, and sweet simplicity of this delightful dessert, guaranteed to leave everyone craving for more.
