First attempt at making firni based on a family recipe... But scaled down a lot as my dad usually makes 8 pints of milk at a time! 😂 And he doesn't add any extras e.g. fruit or nuts.
Ingredients
1 cup rice
2 pints whole milk
200ml double cream
300g granulated sugar
Handful sultanas
2-3 cardamom pods
Handful flaked almonds
Method
1) Put everything except the almonds in a non-stick saucepan (cardamom and sultanas are optional).
2) Bring to the boil on a high heat while stirring continuously.
3) Reduce heat slightly to a simmer and keep stirring for at least half an hour until the firni has thickened to the desired consistency.
4) Take off heat and leave to cool.
5) Serve slightly warm or chilled from the fridge. Sprinkle flaked almonds on top.
