TOASTED COCONUT RICE PUDDING
This is not your average rice pudding. There's a fragrant, almost floral, waft of scent and flavor that is imparted to the creamy rice mixture by the ginger, lime and honey. The toasted coconut and rum are the kickers, though, making it over-the-top good!

Steps:
- To toast coconut: Heat a clean, dry frying pan over medium-high heat, add desiccated coconut and cook, shaking pan constantly, until coconut is golden. (Make a little more toasted coconut than is called for in the recipe so that you can sprinkle some over top at serving time.).
- Bring water, freshly-grated ginger, lime peel, salt and butter to a boil in a medium saucepan. Add the rice, return to the boil, and then reduce the heat to the lowest setting, so the mixture cooks at a simmer. Cook until rice has absorbed most of the water, stirring occasionally, about 20 minutes. Carefully remove the lime peel and discard.
- Scald the 1 cup evaporated milk and honey in the microwave.
- Add the hot milk, honey, toasted coconut and chopped raisins, if using, to the rice mixture. Cook at a bare simmer a further 15 minutes. Remove from heat and stir in rum and vanilla extracts.
- Transfer pudding to a large bowl, place a piece of plastic wrap directly onto surface and cool to room temperature. Place in refrigerator until cool and set. Just before serving, 'loosen' rice pudding by beating in the reserved 1/2 cup evaporated milk with a fork.
- Serve with your favorite toppings.

SAFFRON RICE PILAF WITH RED PEPPERS & TOASTED ALMONDS

Steps:
- On the stove top or in the microwave, heat the broth until hot. Add the saffron, cover, and let sit for 15 to 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, in a heavy-based 3-quart saucepan with a tight lid, heat the oil over medium heat. Add the diced onion and bell pepper, and cook, stirring occasionally, until soft but not browned, about 5 minutes.
- Add the rice, salt and cayenne, and stir well to coat each grain with oil. Toast for a full five minutes, stirring regularly to keep the grains separated and to prevent them from sticking to the bottom of the pan (the rice may turn opaque before 5 minutes is up, but keep going). Reduce the heat to low if there are any signs of scorching. Stir in 2 tablespoons of parsley and the garlic.
- Add the saffron broth, stir once, and bring to a boil over medium-high heat. Cover, reduce the heat to low, and cook for 18 minutes. Remove from the heat, and let the pilaf sit, still covered, for five minutes.
- Once the pilaf has rested, remove the lid and fluff the rice with a fork. Using the fork, gently fold in the almonds, the remaining parsley, and the oregano. Taste for seasoning and adjust as needed.
- P.S. You might be tempted to leave out the saffron because it's expensive, but DON'T DO IT! It's worth every penny, and one jar goes a long way. If you have a Trader Joe's in your area, you can pick up a jar for about three to four bucks. If you don't have a TJ's, I'm sorry for you.

IRAQI HALWA OF TOASTED RICE FLOUR (HALAWAT TIMMAN) (GLUTEN FREE)
This has a lovely flavour. Nice with a cup of tea when craving something sweet. I think this is a very old Iraqi recipe. Here is what Nawal Nasrallah author of, Delights from the Garden of Eden has to say about it. "A simple rice sweet enjoyed with a spoon. It is important to toast the rice to perfection, as this will give the dessert a delicate golden hue and a wonderful aroma. She is of Iraqi decent. Modified slightly from her recipe.
