Equipment

  • Equipment: Instant Pot, Silicon spatula

Ingredients
  

  • Ingredients:
  • 1 cup Black rice
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/2 cup Aroy-D thick coconut milk
  • 1/2 cup whipping cream/coconut cream
  • 2-4 tbs sugar to sweeten as required
  • 1 cup freshly grated coconut
  • 1-2 ripe mangoes

Instructions
 

  • Instructions:
  • Soak the dark purple rice in water overnight after rinsing it several times till the water runs clear. Place it in the Instant Pot, add 1 1/2 cups of water or at least one inch above the rice. Close the lid, set the vent to sealing position and pressure cook for 10 mins. When done allow 10 -12 minutes of NPR or until all the steam is out and uncover the Instant pot.
  • The rice gets perfectly done, it could be a little bit runny like one or two tbs of water which you can reduce by sautéing for 2 mins. Do not stop stirring while sautéing the rice as it quickly sticks to the bottom.
  • Remove in a clean bowl while still hot, mix in 1/2 cup of coconut milk and sugar and leave to cool. It absorbs the coconut milk quickly.
  • Cut up the mangoes into slices, grate the fresh coconut and keep it ready.
  • Take a serving plate or bowl, add a dollop of the sticky black rice, drizzle some whipping cream (optional) then sprinkle the grated coconut on top, arrange the mango slices on the side, drizzle some more whipping cream on the mango slices and enjoy.

Notes

1. It is better to soak the rice overnight to reduce cooking time.
2. Using the Instant pot also helps reduce the cooking time a lot. It was perfectly done in the Instant pot in 10 minutes, whereas with normal cooking it would have taken at least 30 minutes.
3. Use only 100 % pure coconut milk such as Aroy-D or any other but without any preservatives or guar gum. If it is hard to find a good brand that carries 100% pure coconut milk then extract it yourself by grinding the coconut and then straining the milk.
4. Enjoy the black rice porridge with sweet ripe mangoes.
