Switch rice for barley! We use pearled naked barley in place of rice in this pudding inspired by the Lebanese spiced rice puddings traditionally flavoured with cardamom, vanilla, cinnamon, orange and orange blossom water. Read more: What is naked barley? Why should we grow and eat more? |
You could use any of our wholegrains (whole oats would be especially good) in this adaptable recipe. Just bear in mind that un-pearled grains will take a little longer to cook. You could also try different spices: another good combination is cardamom, vanilla, rose water and pistachio.
"This amount would be perfect for four small portions as a pudding. However, having said that my husband ate the whole thing in one sitting, so double the recipe as needed."
