So Good™ almond baked rice with raspberries

Serves: 6
Prep: 15
Cook: 20

    This is a refreshing take on the classic baked dessert.

    Ingredients

    • 4-5 cups (1 litre) So Good™ Unsweetened Almond Milk
    • 1 vanilla bean (or 1 tsp vanilla paste)
    • 1 tbs honey
    • 1 cup Arborio rice
    • 2 tsp rosewater, optional
    • 1 cup fresh raspberries
    • 2 tbs raw sugar

    Need: 6 x 150ml heatproof ramekins


    Method

    1. Step 1

      Heat the So Good™ Unsweetened Almond Milk, vanilla bean and honey together over a low heat.
    2. Step 2

      Place the Arborio rice in a heavy-based saucepan and place over a medium heat. Stir in a ladleful of the warmed milk. Keep stirring and adding milk, one ladle at a time, allowing rice to absorb the milk before the next addition. Continue cooking the rice until it is just cooked through, but the sauce is still a little runny, about 18 minutes. Allow to cool slightly. Mix in the rosewater if desired, stirring well to combine.
    3. Step 3

      Preheat grill. Place three or four fresh raspberries in the bottom of 6 ramekins or heatproof bowls. Spoon rice into over the raspberries, and flatten the top. Sprinkle each dish with a ½ teaspoon sugar and place under the grill, for 5 minutes. Allow the sugar to melt and turn to caramel, keep watch at all times so it doesn’t burn.
    4. Step 4

      Serve garnished with extra fresh raspberries.

    Tips

    • Rosewater is readily available at supermarkets and good food outlets. It makes a fresh fragrant flavour. It can also be easily left out.
    • The rice can be made ahead of time and left covered in the fridge until ready to caramelise. Leave the baked rice in the oven a little longer to heat through.
