Ingredients Serving: 4

  1. Rice flour 2 1/2 tbsp
  2. Sugar 2 tbsp
  3. Ground almonds 1 tbsp
  4. Whole Milk 500ml
  5. Good pinch of saffron threads
  6. Cardamom pods 2, husks removed and seeds powdered
  7. Caramelized almonds or 2 tsp lightly roasted flaked almonds, to decorate.

Instructions

  1. In a bowl, mix the rice, sugar and ground almonds together with 75ml of the milk to make a smooth paste.
  2. Heat the remaining milk with the saffron in a saucepan over medium heat, stirring constantly. As you bring it up to a simmer, stir in the milk and rice flour mixture.
  3. Cook, stirring, over medium heat until it comes to a simmer, then cook for a further 10-15 minutes or until the mixture resembles semi-thick custard. Stir in the cardamom powder to taste.
  4. Pour the cream into serving bowls or glasses, cover and chill in the fridge.
  5. Decorate with the nuts before serving.
  6. *Caramelized rose almonds*
  7. These make a very special decoration. Dissolve 2 tbsp of raw cane sugar with 2 tbsp of water in small saucepan, do not stir. Cook over a gentle heat until the mixture turns to a deep gold caramel. Take off the heat, add 12 blanched and split almonds and a pinch of dried edible rose petals and stir to coat well. Using an oiled spoon, take them out and place in a greased plate and use as a garnish when they become hard.
