- One 400 mL can coconut milk (ideally full fat)
- 1 cup whole milk (3.25%)
- ¼ cup heavy cream (35%)
- 2-3 whole star anise
- 1 cinnamon stick
- generous pinch ground cardamom
- generous pinch ground nutmeg
- 1 tsp vanilla
Add:
- ½ cup Arborio rice (do not rinse).
Very gently simmer, partially covered, for about 25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and most of the milk has been absorbed. Served warm or cold.
