I am preparing for Master Chef. Yes, my dream is to actually get in J I know that this season is already closed (I was too busy with other things) but hopefully next season I will make it.
One of the things that you need for Master Chef are quick but tasty dishes. The judges always throw a surprise challenge your way. You just HAVE to be prepared.
This one is a pudding that, unlike rice pudding, is made with Angle Hair pasta (Vermicelli) and cardamom. Cardamon in Arabic and Hebrew is called הל (Hel – pronounced like Hell just with a long E). It can also mean halo or aurora …. Thus the name
I personally use a light cardamom infusion as I am not the biggest fan of cardamom…
You can eat it both warm or chilled – which makes it great to take with you to work or a pot luck.
Prep Time: 10 Minutes Cook Time: 15 Minutes Ready In: 40 Minutes
Servings: 4
1 l milk
5 tbs white sugar
5 cardamom seeds
1 (500gr ) package Angel Hair/vermicelli pasta, broken into small pieces
1 handful of raisins
Mix the milk together with the sugar and the cardamom seeds (slightly crack them if you want a stronger taste) in a saucepan. Bring to a near boil (careful that the milk will not over boil) then reduce the heat to medium-low and simmer for 5 minutes (make sure that the milk will not burn at the bottom). Stir the pasta and raisins and continue to simmer until pasta is tender and the cream sauce has thickened, about 5 more minutes. Remove from heat and let stand until warm, about 15 minutes. If the pudding is too thick you can stir in a little bit more milk
Please tell me what you think of it.
