How to Make Mango And Coconut Rice Pudding

  1. Rinse 1 cup of long-grain rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
  2. Combine the rinsed rice and 2 cups of water in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 15-20 minutes, or until the rice is cooked and the water is almost completely absorbed.
  3. Stir in 1 (13.5 ounce) can of full-fat coconut milk, 1 cup of whole milk, 1/4 cup light brown sugar, and 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon.
  4. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, then reduce heat to low. Cook for 30-35 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking and ensure even cooking.
  5. While the rice pudding simmers, peel, core, and finely dice 1 ripe mango (about 1 1/2 cups diced).
  6. After 30-35 minutes of simmering, taste the rice pudding and add granulated sugar to your liking (up to 1/4 cup).
  7. Stir in the diced mango and cook for another 2 minutes until slightly softened.
  8. Remove from heat and let stand for 5 minutes to allow the flavors to meld.
  9. Serve warm and enjoy your tropical escape!
  10. Garnish with toasted coconut flakes or a sprinkle of cinnamon (optional).
