Coconut Milk Rice Pudding

What you need: 

1 (16 ounce) can coconut milk
sweetener, to taste
1/2 cup coconut, optional
2 cups cooked rice (brown or white)
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
vanilla nondairy milk, optional

What you do: 

1. Heat the coconut milk in a heavy saucepot, over medium heat, until it comes to a simmer. Add sweetener and stir until dissolved. Add coconut, if desired.
2. Add the cooked rice and heat through. Simmer until it thickens, but don't allow it to become too dry, the rice will continue to absorb the milk as it cools.
3. Take off the heat and stir in the vanilla. Serve warm or chilled. Top with vanilla milk, if desired (good if it gets too dry).
We love to eat this warm for breakfast or chilled for dessert.

SO HOW'D IT GO?

OMG.  This is sooo delish!  I had some leftover sushi rice and leftover coconut milk and I mixed it up in a jiffy.  Delicious!

I just wanted to add that this was great when warm and after it cooled down, but the next day the rice was really hard :(  I'm not sure why.  It still had plenty of conconut milk and it was still very pudding like, but why did the rice get all crunchy like?

This was yummy!  My can of coconut was only 13 oz but that was plenty.  I used two tablespoons of brown sugar but it could use more.  I used white rice and full fat coconut milk.  Certainly not light and healthy, but a quick and rich dessert.  Two thumbs up!  :) :)

Love coconut milk rice pud - I used half fat cm and dessert rice which I boiled up like you would do for normal savoury rice using water, to which i added four cardamoms. Added the cm when the rice started to swell and the water boiled away. I added green raisins and almond slithers (I then spent a while playing hunt the green cardamom in amongst a handful of green raisins - doh!).  Took about 30mins or so in all.  Hot or cold, its pretty darn tasty.

This is delicious!  :) I made mine with brown rice, approx. 2 Tablespoons of sugar, cinnamon, all spice, almond extract instead of vanilla, and raisins. I agree it's addicting! Mmmmm

YYUUMM!!!  Added raisins, a bit of pumpkin pie spice, and some corn starch to make it chunky (love it that way).

Its cooling now, can't wait!!!

This is a terrific recipe and very similar to the rice pudding I had been making with regular soymilk.  I used a short grain rice,  added about 1/4 cup sugar as well as cinnamon, cardamom and chopped up dried apricots.  I find I enjoy this the best slightly warm.  :)
