How to Prepare Mango Phirni: Indian Rice Pudding [Vegan, Gluten-Free]

  1. Wash and soak the rice for about 5 minutes.
  2. Add the saffron to the warm water and set aside.
  3. Wash and peel the mango and chop the pulp. Purée this by adding 2-3 tablespoons of water and set aside 1 cup of purée.
  4. In a heavy bottom vessel, add the sugar and almond milk and simmer them over a low flame until the sugar dissolves.
  5. Once the sugar is dissolved, add the washed and soaked rice and cardamom powder.
  6. Let the flattened rice cook over low flame. It will take about 5 to 7 minutes and when the milk mix becomes frothy like below, turn off the heat. We don’t want the rice to lose its shape.
  7. Let it this mix mixture cool. As the mixture cools, it will thicken up.
  8. When it comes to room temperature, add the saffron, water, and mango purée one by one and mix them gently.
  9. Garnish it with nuts or saffron strands and serve cold.
