Indian rice pudding - smooth, creamy and lifted with a little cardamom.
Hari says
This is a creamy and delicious Indian rice pudding with warming cardamom to add a little bit of eastern mystery. When I was a kid I'd have this at the temple every week, so this brings back some really lovely memories for me. In India though, this would be made much sweeter than I've made it here, so feel free to adapt it to your own tastes. You can also jazz it up with nuts, almonds, raisins, whatever you fancy really. And the kids love it as they can get creative with the toppings.

Hi Aisha Thanks for using the website. Yes you can wash the rice before you cook the dish and its also ok to soak to rice for about 30 mins before hand. I hope you enjoy the dish so let me know how it turns out. Thanks Hari

Hi Yes really straightforward you can use a pudding rice but I tend to just use basmati rice. Let me know it comes out. Thanks for commenting. Hari

Before starting with the rice, do you wash and soak it before that or just cook it right away?
Thank you
