Best 2 Vanilla Rice Pudding With Blackberry Compote Recipes

SPICED RICE PUDDING WITH BLACKBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• Cook the rice following pack instructions - don't be tempted to cook it until al dente - it will not continue to cook in the milk later, so it needs to be nice and soft at this point.
• Meanwhile, mix the cornflour to a paste with a little of the milk until smooth. Add this to a saucepan with the remaining milk, condensed milk, cinnamon, cardamom, nutmeg, vanilla and a good pinch of salt. Stir until smooth, then bring to a simmer. Turn down to very low heat and leave to gently infuse while the rice cooks.
• When the rice is cooked, drain well, then add to the warm milk mixture. Turn up the heat and bubble until thick and creamy - this will take about 20-25 mins.
• To make the blackberry compote, empty the blackberries into a saucepan, add the agave syrup and bring to a simmer. Boil for a few mins. Cool for a few mins before serving, or serve at room temperature with the rice pudding.

VANILLA RICE PUDDING WITH BLACKBERRY COMPOTE

Steps:

• For the compote: Combine the blackberries, sugar, lemon juice and zest in a small saucepan and bring to a simmer over medium heat. Cook, stirring occasionally, until the juice starts to thicken and coats the back of a spoon, about 9 minutes. Remove from the heat, transfer to a medium heatproof bowl and let cool slightly, about 10 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the pudding: Combine the rice, cream, milk and sugar in a medium heavy-bottomed saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, until almost all the liquid is absorbed and the pudding has a porridge-like consistency, about 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and add the vanilla bean paste and a pinch of salt, stirring to combine.
• Divide the rice among 4 bowls and spoon the blackberry compote over the top. Serve immediately.
