Coconut Black Rice Pudding Recipe – Kavuni Arisi Sweet – Black rice which is called kavuni arisi in Tamil is high in nutritional value and a very good source of iron, vitamin E and antioxidants. It is a very popular ingredient in South Asia.

The rice is hard, dark black in color and turns purple when cooked. It is not only healthy but also very delicious. The rice needs to be soaked for a long time as it is hard. Though it turns soft as cooked, we get the chewy chunks of rice while eating.
