What’s Cooking in Gail’s Kitchen? Equal Measures: Mango Rice Pudding! One of my fondest childhood memories is eating cinnamon sugared rice pudding warm from the stove. It’s funny how we associate traditional recipes with comfort food. Being a child of the ‘50s, it was the norm to have dessert with supper every night. ‘Course we also played outside till after dark. Sometimes it was “Kick the Can”, “Capture the Flag”, “Red Rover”, or “Spud”. I think my favorite was the neighborhood themed, “Boys Chase the Girls”. Being a tomboy who could run like the wind, I never did get caught. After all, who wants to be kissed by one of their brothers?!
INGREDIENTS:
1 cup sweet rice
1 1/2 cups half milk and half cream
1 cup whole milk
1 cup water
1/4 cup evaporated milk
1/2 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
2 cinnamon sticks
3 mangoes; peeled, diced, and cubed
Zest of 1 lime
Pinch ground nutmeg
Cinnamon sugar, to taste
Instructions:
Using a rice cooker, add sweet rice, half and half, whole milk, water, evaporated milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and cinnamon sticks to the removable pot. Close and lock the lid. Set to risotto function. Regulator knob must be set to “pressure”. Cook 18 minutes. Once the function is complete, use the natural release method to release pressure. Open the lid. Stir until the ingredients are all mixed together. Fold in half the chopped mangoes. To serve, spoon rice pudding into dessert bowls. Top with reserve mangoes and lime zest. Garnish with a sprinkling of nutmeg and cinnamon sugar.

Love rice pudding and this looks delicious. Unfortunately, I developed an allergy to mangoes a few years ago, so it is torture because I know how delicious these fruits are!!!

My bride (of 32 years, one month and 27 days 😉) loves mangoes and I have always enjoyed rice pudding since I was a boy. So this is on our to-do list for the next time we see mangoes in Kroger or Meijer! Thanx, c.a.
