So it’s the holy month of Ramadan, I though this time I would post a recipe that’s both light and suitable for the occasion. This version of rice pudding is good as a night snack before the fasting hours begin, not only that, its extremely easy and fast to prepare.
You will need:
1/2 cup rice (short grain)
1 1/2 cups water
12 TBS fat-free powder milk*
2 TBS cornflour
4 cups of water
4 TBS sugar
4 TBS orange blossom water (ma zaher)
Wash the rice thoroughly and drain, put in a pot with the water till boiling, lower the heat and wait for the rice to become soft (around 15 min).
In a separate bowl mix the powder milk, corn flour, water, and sugar, then add the mixture to the cooked rice. Keep stirring till boiling. Add the orange blossom water and continue stirring till the mixture thickens.
Pour into 6 glasses and put in the fridge, serve cold.
You can decorate with ground pistachios.
