Almond Kowadjik

Almond Kowadjik


1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.

2. Toast the almonds and coconut separately on baking sheets in the oven until golden brown. Keep a close eye on them so they don't burn. Set aside to cool.

3. In a saucpan, mix the rice, milk, orange zest, salt and cardamom. Bring to a simmer over medium heat and cover. Cook until all the milk is absorbed and the rice is soft. It should not have a bite.

4. Remove the pan from the heat and mix in the butter, sugar, almonds and coconut. Press the mixture into a buttered 9 x 13 inch casserole and chill.

5. Cut into squares before serving.
