Units
Scale
- 1 cup water
- 1/3 cup jasmine rice
- 1 1/2 cups light coconut milk
- 2 1/2 tablespoons sugar
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 teaspoons cornstarch
- 1/8 teaspoon vanilla
- 1/4 cup fresh or thawed frozen raspberries
Instructions
- Place the water and rice in a small saucepan over medium-high heat and bring to a boil.
- Turn the heat to low, cover, and simmer until the liquid is absorbed and the rice is soft, about 20 minutes. Stir in the coconut milk and 2 tablespoons of the sugar and bring to a simmer.
- In a small bowl, stir together the egg yolk, cornstarch, vanilla, and remaining ½ tablespoon sugar into a smooth paste. Whisk a little bit of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture until smooth, and then stir the egg mixture into the hot milk.
- Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat. Cook, stirring constantly, allowing the mixture to bubble for 2 minutes.
- Remove from the heat and spoon the mixture into bowls or ramekins. Place a piece of wax paper directly on the surface of each serving to prevent a skin from forming. Chill until cool, about 2 hours. Mash the raspberries with a fork and spoon them over the top before serving.
