Ingredients
-
2 tbsp granulated sugar
-
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

Directions
In a medium pot, bring granulated sugar, coconut milk, milk, cream, star anise, cinnamon stick, cardamom, nutmeg, vanilla, and rice to a very gentle simmer. Cook, stirring often, until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid and is tender, about 25 minutes.
Remove the star anise and cinnamon stick. Stir in the zest.
Served warm or cold.
