Follow The Directions

01

Step

In a medium saucepan, combine the water, black rice, and salt. Bring to a vigorous boil over high heat. (Approximately 5 minutes)

02

Step

Once boiling, reduce the heat to low, cover the saucepan, and simmer gently for 40 minutes, or until the rice is tender and most of the water has been absorbed.

03

Step

Stir in the coconut milk and sugar. Increase the heat to medium and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring constantly to prevent sticking. (Approximately 3 minutes)

04

Step

Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the pudding thickens and the rice reaches a delightfully sticky consistency. This should take approximately 30 minutes.

05

Step

Remove from heat and allow to cool slightly before serving. The pudding will thicken further as it cools.

06

Step

Stir well before serving. Garnish with a drizzle of coconut cream or a scoop of coconut ice cream for an extra touch of indulgence, if desired.

For an enhanced flavor, consider adding a pandan leaf to the rice while simmering. Remove before serving.
Adjust the amount of sugar to your personal preference. Palm sugar can be used for a more authentic Thai flavor.
To prevent sticking, use a heavy-bottomed saucepan and stir frequently during the simmering process.
The pudding can be served warm or cold, depending on your preference. It can also be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
