Ingredients
- 1 cup short grain rice
- 1 cup water
- 9 cups whole milk divided
- ¾ cup granulated sugar
- 1 tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 tablespoons rose water
- ½ teaspoon vanilla extract optional
- pistachios chopped, for serving
Instructions
- In a large pot, cook the unwashed rice with the water until the water is absorbed, about 5-7 minutes.
- Add the milk (reserve ½ cup for the cornstarch slurry) along with the sugar to the pot of rice. Bring milk and rice to a boil and then reduce heat to medium-low. Stir the mixture frequently, until the rice is fully cooked, and the milk begins to thicken, about 15 minutes.
- Dissolve the cornstarch in the remaining ½ cup of milk and transfer to the pot. Add the rose water and vanilla extract and stir frequently until mixture thickens, about 15 more minutes.
- Transfer the mixture into 5-10 bowls, and allow to cool. It will continue to thicken as it cools.
- Add the chopped pistachios or other toppings, and serve warm or chilled.
