SWEET RICE DESSERT WITH RAISINS, GINGER, NUTS AND HONEY – GLUTEN-FREE
Gluten-free Friday goes on, I am on the very verge of adding another recipe category where I will collect my gluten-free recipes, baking and cooking but I am still on the verge of doing it stage and I still haven’t got my computer so it will be in the future, hopefully the near future though. By saying it here, I might actually start on it soon. Anyway, today I am proposing a little rice dessert, no cream, no sauce except some honey but quite tasty if you like rice, fresh ginger, nuts and raisins. It is important to choose a rice that you like, personally I think Asian rice is better for this that the Italian ones but it is a matter of taste as so many other things in this world.
SWEET RICE DESSERT WITH RAISINS, GINGER, NUTS AND HONEY – GLUTEN-FREE
3-4 servings
250 ml/ 1 cup fine grained rice, not parboiled
1-2 tblsp sugar
100 ml/0,42 cup raisins
a piece of fresh ginger
50-75 g/1,7-2,6 oz nuts, I recommend soft nuts like walnuts or pine nuts.
3-5 tblsp runny honey
rum, very optional
- If you want to soak the raisins in rum, this is the time to do it.
- Cook the rice in water with sugar. Let it cool down.
- Chop ginger, raisins and nuts finely and add the honey.
- Add the rice mix very well and put it in the fridge to get cold.
- Serve with a drizzle of honey.
