How to Make Rice Almond Pudding Ris A L Amande

  1. In a medium saucepan, combine 1 cup Arborio rice and 4 cups whole milk.
  2. Cook over medium heat for 45 minutes, or until the rice is tender and creamy, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking.
  3. Remove from heat and let cool completely.
  4. In a medium bowl, beat 1 cup heavy cream with an electric mixer until stiff peaks form.
  5. Stir in 1 teaspoon vanilla extract.
  6. Gently fold the whipped cream, 1/2 cup granulated sugar, and 1/2 cup slivered almonds into the cooled rice mixture.
  7. Spoon the pudding into individual serving dishes or a large bowl.
  8. Refrigerate for at least 3-4 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow flavors to meld and the pudding to set.
  9. Before serving, toast the remaining slivered almonds in a dry skillet over medium heat until golden brown. Sprinkle over the chilled rice pudding.
  10. To make the cherry sauce: In a small saucepan, combine 1 (14-ounce) can pitted dark sweet cherries (drained), reserving 1/4 cup of the juice.
  11. In a small bowl, whisk together 1 tablespoon cornstarch and a little cold water until smooth.
  12. Stir the cornstarch mixture into the cherries and cherry juice.
  13. Cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until the sauce thickens to your desired consistency.
  14. Remove from heat and stir in 1 tablespoon cherry liqueur (optional).
  15. Serve the chilled rice pudding topped with the warm cherry sauce.
