This is a breakfast dish ... and one of my favourites! It’s very simple to make and it smells and tastes amazing.
Soaking the rice overnight is worth it as that’s generally a good thing for grains and it means it will cook faster.
You can use any kind of fruit to top the rice pudding: mango, banana, kiwi, pomegranate ... This time i made a warm mango topping 😋

Steps

1

Soak the rice overnight in about 2 cups of water.
2

Drain the rice and place in a pan with the coconut milk, water and vanilla pod. Bring to a boil, reduce to a simmer and cover. Stir regularly. Cook for about 45 mins or until the rice is tender. You want a little liquid left. If the liquid dries out, add a little more water.
3

Meanwhile, preheat oven to 160 C. Put the coconut flakes on a baking tray and toast for 5-10 mins until they are just turning golden brown.
4

To make the warm mango topping, add the mango chunks to a small pan with a splash of water and the ginger powder. Cook over a low to medium heat for about 10 minutes - the mixture will bubble and reduce. Add a little more water if it dries out. If you’re not warming the fruit, chop it up ready to serve.
5

When the rice is cooked, stir through the salt and the maple syrup or sugar. (Don’t forget to take the vanilla pod out before serving 😁)
6

Serve the rice, topped with the coconut and mango (or your fruit of choice). Add some more coconut milk if you like and enjoy!
