Azlin Bloor
4 servings
BeginnerThis is rice pudding with a whole lot of attitude! It's made with risotto rice, it has chocolate and t has coffee - perfect for Easter or any other occasion!
How does one eat it? As is, unadorned, is always going to be good. Of course, a dollop of ice cream, some clotted cream, or my favourite, some mascarpone, enhances the experience by giving you another layer of flavour. Hot or room temperature is a decision you’ll have to make, I personally prefer it warm, the contrast with whatever cold complement you serve will tease your senses, enhancing the experience further.
