PUDDINGS, MOUSSE
If you need dessert in a hurry, don't want to turn the oven on or need a simple make ahead option for 2 or a large crowd, puddings fit the bill. They are quick and can be set in individual dessert bowls/glasses/cups to look pretty. Save more time and set the pudding in a large bowl!

Thandai Indian Rice Kheer … Holi time of the year
Flavoured delicately, this indulgent Thandai Indian Rice Kheer hits all the right notes. Sweetened gently with jaggery, the flavours of almond, cardamom and saffron just shine. The texture of broken simmered rice is what adds body to this delectable kheer or pudding.

Cocoa Mousse-a-Cotta … Deep, dark, indulgent dessert experiment
Cocoa Mousse-a-Cotta, a failed panna cotta experiment that became a mousse. Deep, dark, indulgent dessert experiment which turned out deliciously wrong. It had something missing in the ingredients, but certainly not in taste! Try this you must, until I reach the right one!

Of Caramel Custard, Mother’s Day and Sunday Stills. The Yin and Yang of life!
My version of the quintessential ‘Caramel Custard’ that showed up on our frugal dessert table quite often when we were young. This one is slightly more luxurious than the wobbly one we had as kids. It's baked, not steamed. If you are making one large pudding, steaming it in the pressure cooker is quicker.

Nolen Gur Rice Kheer & traditional delicacies in Kolkata #Indiancuisine #fooddiary
A simple yet characteristic version of the Indian rice pudding, Noleun Gur Rice Kheer, has lilting, endearing flavour.

It is simply stirred through the thickened pudding in the end to sweeten the cooked rice.
