  1. Bring the water to a boil.
  2. Add the rice and cook for 10 mins. The rice may be stirred, as it’s a pudding, and the grains are not meant to be separate.
  3. Add coconut cream, sugar, ground ginger and cardamom seeds. Cook further 5-8 mins without a lid, till rice is fully cooked and porridge like.
  4. Stir in the fruit and nuts and transfer to ramekins to cool in the fridge.
  5. Turn out of the ramekins once cooled and set. Top with thinly sliced mango.
