Coconut-Banana-Black Rice Pudding

Ingredients:

1 1⁄2 cup BD Provisions Thai black rice (Bin #1765)

1 cup water + 1⁄4 cup or more

1 cup reduced fat coconut milk

1-2 mashed bananas (Use one for slightly sweet and

two for extra sweet.)

(Optional) Toasted coconut flakes for topping (You

can buy these already toasted or toast them

yourself.)

Instructions:

1. In a saucepan at medium-heat, mix 2 cups

water, black rice, and coconut milk. Bring to a

rolling boil.

2. Reduce heat and simmer for 50 minutes or until rice is tender. Make

sure to keep an eye on it every so often.

3. Stir occasionally so as to avoid burning the rice.

4. During the last ten minutes of cooking, check to see if the rice mixture

is tender. If it is too dry, add extra water 1⁄4 cup at a time.

5. Stir in the mashed banana towards the end.

6. Simmer until pudding has the desired texture.

7. Serve in a small bowl topped with toasted coconut flakes.

Yields approximately 4 servings
