1

Rev up the Rice

In a saucepan, combine 1 cup of medium-grain rice and 2 cups of water. Bring it to a boil over medium-high heat. Lower the heat and let it simmer for about 10 minutes until the rice is partially cooked.

2

Marry the Milk and Rice

Add 2 cups of milk, 1 cup of coconut milk, and 1/2 cup of condensed milk to the partially cooked rice. Stir it gently, making sure to scrape the bottom to avoid any rice sticking. Bring it to a gentle simmer over medium-low heat.

3

Sweeten the Deal

Add 1/4 cup of brown sugar (or adjust to your sweetness preference) and a pinch of salt to the simmering mixture. Stir until the sugar dissolves completely. Taste and resist the temptation to dive face-first into the pot.

Here's where the twist comes in! Customize your rice pudding with your choice of flavor. You can add a teaspoon of cinnamon and a sprinkle of nutmeg for a cozy spice blend. Or go wild with 2 tablespoons of rose water for a floral delight. Get creative and experiment!

5

Simmer and Stir

Let the rice pudding simmer gently on low heat for about 30 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. Remember, patience is a virtue, and it will be worth the wait!

6

Chill Out, Pudding

Once the rice is tender and the pudding reaches a creamy consistency, remove it from the heat. Let it cool slightly, then transfer it to the fridge to chill for at least 2 hours. Patience is a virtue, remember?

Serve and Savor

Now comes the best part: serving and savoring your twisted rice pudding! Sprinkle some toasted coconut flakes or crushed pistachios on top for an extra crunch. Grab a spoon, close your eyes, and indulge in each blissful bite.
