Instructions

1 Prep cardamom

Split the cardamom pods open with the back of a knife.

Tip! Splitting the cardamom pod cracks it open so the aromatic seeds are exposed, allowing their essential oils to infuse more fully and quickly into the milk.

2 Simmer pudding

In a small pot, add the milk, whipping cream, sugar, corn starch and cardamom pods.
Whisk until the sugar and corn starch is dissolved.
Place the pot over medium heat, whisking continuously for 4-5 min until starting to thicken.
Reduce the heat to low and continue whisking for 1-2 min further until thickened to a pudding consistency that coats the back of a spoon.
Remove from the heat.
Add the orange blossom water and whisk through.

3 Refrigerate

Remove and discard the cardamom pods and any seeds.
Portion the creamy pudding into individual cups or glasses, as preferred.
Cover with cling film, ensuring the cling film touches the surface of the pudding to avoid forming a skin.
Refrigerate for 2-3 hours to set.

Tip! Discard the cardamom pods
