Easter
Traditional paskha is made from cottage cheese, butter andadding cream, raisins and candied fruits. We suggest replacing the curd dessert with rice pudding with coconut milk, raisins and orange zest. The recipe does not use cottage cheese, cream or butter. Suitable for people with and casein. Ingredients: 110 g rice (arborio or regular round grain), 1 jar (100-165 ml) of canned coconut milk, 55 g of powdered sugar, vegetable oil for greasing the pan, a pinch of salt, a mug of hot water (if the rice turns out dry), zest of one orange. Method of preparation: Preheat the oven to 180 degrees. Prepare baking molds, grease them with vegetable oil. Or use one large mold. Rinse the rice, put it on the bottom of the molds. The rice should fill the mold by ⅓. Pour coconut milk, a cup of water, add orange zest, salt and powdered sugar into a saucepan of a suitable size. Bring to a boil over low heat. Remove the saucepan from the heat and pour into the molds on top of the rice. Place the molds with pudding in the oven. Cook for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, check the consistency. If it is already creamy, the pudding is ready, if it is still very liquid, leave it for another 10-15 minutes. You can sprinkle cinnamon or sugar on top, then the pudding crust will caramelize. Take the pudding out, cool it, put it in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or better overnight. You can serve with fresh fruit or jam. After cooling, the pudding can be turned out of the molds. This way you will get mini-Easter cakes, but not from cottage cheese. Enjoy your meal!
