Risalamande (Danish Christmas Rice Pudding)
Report
I love the tradition of serving Ris a La Mande (Danish Rice Pudding) on Little Christmas Eve! A delicious, traditional dessert if you have Danish roots!

Ingredients
For the rice pudding:
- 1/2 cup arborio rice (it MUST be this kind of rice)
- 4 cups whole milk
- 3 Tablespoons vanilla sugar (do NOT use vanilla extract...this can be tricky to find, see above)
- 3 Tablespoons sugar
- 1 cup almonds finely chopped using knife
- 2 1/4 cups whipping cream whipped
For the sauce:
- 2 cups frozen raspberries
- 2 Tablespoons water
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 1 Tablespoon cornstarch
- 2 Tablespoons water
Instructions
RICE PUDDING:
- Bring milk to a simmer slowly in a large pot over low heat.
- Add rice, keep simmering until rice is tender, stir every 3 min or so to prevent rice and/or milk burning at the bottom. This step takes approx 40 minutes.
- While the rice is simmering you can make the raspberry sauce and chop the almonds.
- When rice is tender and has thickened, remove from heat and let it cool slightly.
- Add vanilla sugar, sugar and almonds.
- Fold in whipped cream.
- Keep warm or chill before serving (we actually like the rice pudding warm... but some like it chilled. Either way works).
- Serve with raspberry sauce or warm cherry sauce.
SAUCE:
- In medium sauce pan, place frozen raspberries and 2 Tablespoons of water, heat until thawed, add sugar and stir. Let simmer for approx. 3-5 minutes.
- Strain seeds (catching the juices/pulp over a bowl), discard seeds and put juices back in the sauce pan.
- Mix cornstarch with water and add to the sauce SLOWLY to thicken. You probably won't need all the mixture. This step can be omitted if you want a more natural and thinner sauce.
- Serve sauce warm.
Notes
- This risalamande dessert can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for five to seven days long.
