About the Recipe

A nice gluten-free porridge. The warmth of this dish helps to create grounding at the start of the day.

Ingredients

1/2 cup basmati rice

1 cup water

1 1/2 cups milk

1/4 cup shredded coconut

1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon

1/4 teaspoon ground cardamom

1 Tbsp. ghee (or coconut oil) or make your own ghee!

3 medjool dates, chopped

maple syrup to sweeten, if desired

​

Preparation

In a saucepan, bring the water and milk to boil, then add the rice and shredded coconut. Lower heat to a simmer until the rice is soft and swollen, 30-40 minutes, depending on desired consistency.

​

In a small skillet, on low heat, heat the ghee and add the ground cinnamon and cardamom. Cook until the aromas of the spices come through, but be careful to avoid burning. 

​

Pour the spice and ghee mixture over the cooked rice porridge and mix. Add the chopped dates and maple syrup (if desired) to sweeten. 

​

If a more warming porridge is desired, use dry or fresh ginger, ground nutmeg and ground black pepper in addition to the cinnamon and cardamom.
