Got this recipe from the Spring Gourmet Gala on Kauai. Absolutely delicious and similar to rice pudding.
Ingredients:
1 cup risotto rice
1 tablespoon butter (melted)
1 cup rum (dark)
3/4 cup sugar
3 cups coconut milk
1 cup heavy cream
1 cup water
1 tablespoon vanilla
1/4 cup coconut (shredded)
1 (12 ounce) can whipped cream
1/2 cup pecans (candied)
Directions:
1. Saute risotto and melted butter.
2. Add 1/2 cup rum to saute mixture over low heat and let rice absorb the rum.
3. In a separate pan heat sugar, coconut milk, heavy cream, and water. Once sugar is dissolved add the rice mixture a little at a time, stirring often (about 20 minutes).
4. Cook over low heat until rice is tender and creamy.
5. Stir into mixture vanilla, other 1/2 cup rum, and coconut.
6. Refrigerate until cold.
7. Serve in little dishes topped with whipped cream and candied pecans.
