March 6, 2021
Rice Pudding is a very popular Indian dessert. But this is a very unique pudding that my mother always made and I feel her warmth every time I make it. It is a creamy, aromatic dessert with a few ingredients like milk, tapioca pearls, saffron, sugar, cardamom powder, and nuts. A must….. warm or cold.
Tip: For leftovers, add a little milk before re-heating it.
