How to Prepare Healthy Thai Black Rice Pudding [Vegan]

To Make the Black Rice Porridge:

Add the black sesame plant-milk or your chosen milk to a saucepan. Put 1 star anise and 1 peel of orange in the milk along with a pinch of salt. Turn on to low heat and bring to a slow simmer for 2 minutes to infuse the aromatics.
Next, in with the cooked black Riceberry, you can leave the aromatics in and take them out later.
Gently warm through and cook out the porridge for 5-6 minutes, stirring throughout. It’s important to cook gently and slowly to allow the black Riceberry to absorb the milk and for the liquid to reduce slightly to give a nice consistency. If it’s getting a little think, you can add a few more splashes of water or plant-milk.
Add sweetener and stir in. Have a taste and adjust seasoning. Add more sweet, spice or a pinch of salt.
And that’s it! Your black Riceberry porridge is ready to serve.

To Serve Black Rice Pudding:

Transfer the black rice pudding into serving bowls.
Top with diced mango, blueberries, pistachios.
Garnish with coconut chips and pistachio nuts.
Pour over another shot of sesame plant-milk just before serving OR serve with the extra shot on the side for your guest to pour. Adding the extra shot of plant-milk helps lighten everything up and makes it easier to eat.
