Method
Follow each step in order. Ingredient names are highlighted as you go.
- 01
Combine the red rice and water in a heavy pot and bring to a gentle simmer at about 95°C (203°F).
- 02
Cook until the red rice is mostly tender and much of the liquid has been absorbed.
- 03
Add the whole milk, cinnamon stick, and salt, and continue cooking at about 90°C (194°F), stirring often so the milk does not catch.
- 04
When the rice is very tender and the mixture looks creamy, stir in the white sugar, unsalted butter, raisins, and cardamom powder.
- 05
Simmer gently until the pudding thickens to a soft spoonable consistency.
- 06
Remove the cinnamon stick and serve warm.
