Ingredients:

  • 1/2 cup Arborio rice (or any short-grain rice)
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 1/2 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/4 cup water
  • 1 tablespoon cornstarch
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
  • A pinch of salt
  • Ground cinnamon for garnish (optional)
  • Ground pistachios for garnish (optional)

Method:

  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
  2. In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, wash the rice thoroughly, and then drain it.
  3. In the same saucepan, combine the washed rice, 4 cups of whole milk, and a pinch of salt. Place it over medium heat and bring it to a boil, stirring occasionally.
  4. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, stirring frequently, until the rice is soft and the mixture has thickened. This should take about 20-25 minutes.
  5. In a small bowl, dissolve the cornstarch in 1/4 cup of water, and then add it to the rice mixture. Stir continuously and cook for another 5 minutes until it thickens even more.
  6. Add in the granulated sugar and vanilla extract. Mix well and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes.
  7. Pour the rice pudding into a baking dish or individual ramekins.
  8. Place the dish or ramekins in the preheated oven and bake for about 30-40 minutes or until the top is golden brown and the rice pudding has set.
  9. Once baked, remove it from the oven and let it cool to room temperature.
  10. Refrigerate the Firin Sutlac for a few hours until it’s chilled and set.
  11. Before serving, you can garnish it with a sprinkle of ground cinnamon and ground pistachios, if desired.
