Ingredients

• 1 cup black sticky rice
• Vanilla rice pudding
• 1/4 cup white rice (jasmine)
• 1/4 cup sweet condensed milk
• 1.5 tablespoons sugar( for black rice )
• 2 tablespoons sugar
• 1 vanilla pod

Instructions:

The rice that you see below is aromatic asian purple rice. You can buy this from any asian store. If you are in India , you can buy this from www.giskaa.com. Keep in mind that this is not a black rice and is very different.

Wash the rice thoroughly, You can cook this on a pressure cooker or a rice cooker. My preference is the rice cooker for this one. The recommended rice to water ratio is 1:2. Add sugar and let it cook till its done.

For vanilla rice pudding, take a heavy pan. Put sugar and milk and let it simmer for few minutes. Add rice and let it cook in a very slow flame till milk reduces to half the original amount. You can scrape off the vanilla pot.  I like the texture of the vanilla beans, if you do not like it , you can use the vanilla essentials. Cook for few more minutes. Now you can add the condensed milk until you get the  pudding  consistency. The whole procedure may take 30 minutes.
