Pulut Hitam (Black Rice Pudding With Coconut Milk) Recipe
- 1 cup black sticky rice (purple rice)
- 2/3 cups sugar
- 1 1/2 cups coconut milk
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- Soak rice for at least 6 to 8 hours in a large bowl filled with cold water.
- The next day, drain the rice and add to large saucepan. Add 8 cups (2 quarts) fresh water to the pan. Add sugar and bring water to boil over high heat. Reduce to a simmer and cook, partially covered, until rice grains have split open and the rice is tender, 1 to 1 1/2 hours. The liquid in the pan will have thickened to the consistency of a light syrupy pudding. Towards the end of cooking time, stir the rice to prevent scorching and sticking on the bottom.
- Meanwhile, combine coconut milk with salt and let sit at room temperature.
- Ladle rice pudding into serving bowls and drizzle the coconut milk over each portion. Serve immediately. Leftover pudding may be kept in a covered container in the refrigerator for up to 1 week. Reheat before serving.
