Creamy Coconut Milk Rice Pudding - cooking recipe

Ingredients

3 cups water
1 1/2 cups basmati rice
3 cups coconut milk
1 1/2 cups raw sugar
1/2 teaspoon sea salt
1 cup whole milk
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup unsalted butter
1 tablespoon vanilla extract
2 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1 (15 ounce) can sliced peaches, drained and chopped (optional)
1 cup raisins, or more to taste (optional)

Preparation

Bring water and rice to a boil in a saucepan. Reduce heat to medium-low, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and liquid has been absorbed, about 20 minutes.
Combine rice, coconut milk, sugar, and salt in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Reduce heat and simmer until pudding is thick and creamy, 18 to 20 minutes. Stir milk and eggs into pudding, stirring constantly to keep pudding from sticking, at least 2 minutes.
Remove pudding from heat and stir butter, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg into pudding until thoroughly mixed. Fold peaches and raisins into pudding.
