This is my mother\u2019s recipe, passed down from my grandmother.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It\u2019s a traditional dessert from Constantine ( East of Algeria): straightforward, yet truly special, and it always looks beautiful on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/en\/article-ramadan-recipes-for-iftar.html\" type=\"post\" id=\"128864\">Ramadan table<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>This Algerian rice cream is silky and delicately perfumed, quite different from <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/en\/article-mahalabia-muhallebi-middle-eastern-milk-pudding.html\" type=\"post\" id=\"133345\">mahalabia<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here, you won\u2019t find whole rice grains. Instead, finely ground rice gives the cream a perfect set while staying tender and melt-in-the-mouth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For me, it\u2019s a must-have comfort dessert that I always keep chilled, ready to enjoy after a quiet moment.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The signature flavours? The classic duo of orange blossom and cinnamon, this is what makes mhalbi so distinctive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>It does require a little attention: first, the ground rice is cooked with milk and sugar, then diluted cornstarch is added to create a creamy, perfectly smooth texture.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The key is to keep stirring so the rice doesn\u2019t stick or burn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone wp-image-76151 size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1500\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois-3.jpg\" alt=\"creme de riz algerienne \u00e0 la fleur d'oranger\" class=\"wp-image-76151\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois-3.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois-3-200x300.jpg 200w, https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois-3-683x1024.jpg 683w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Algerian Rice Cream<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ingredients for perfect Mhalbi Constantinois<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>To make a creamy, fragrant mhalbi, here\u2019s what you need (with a few notes to help you get the best result):<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>1 litre whole milk<\/strong>\u00a0: Whole milk gives a richer taste and creamier texture. Semi-skimmed milk works, but the result will be less indulgent.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>120 g finely ground rice (rice powder)<\/strong>\u00a0: It should be ground very finely, almost like flour. You can buy rice flour or make it at home by blending raw rice until flour-like.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>1 tbsp cornstarch (slightly heaped)<\/strong>\u00a0: Cornstarch helps the cream set smoothly alongside the rice, keeping the final texture light and silky.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>3 tbsp orange blossom water<\/strong>\u00a0: The essential flavour of mhalbi. Add it near the end to preserve its aroma.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>5 tbsp sugar (adjust to taste)<\/strong>\u00a0: Add more or less depending on preference. For extra flavour, you can use vanilla sugar or a touch of honey.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><strong>Cinnamon (to decorate)<\/strong>\u00a0: Classic finish for aroma and presentation; you can dust evenly or create traditional patterns.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignnone wp-image-76153 size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"1527\" src=\"https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois.jpg\" alt=\"cr\u00e8me au riz en poudre \u00e0 la fleur d'oranger\" class=\"wp-image-76153\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois-196x300.jpg 196w, https:\/\/www.amourdecuisine.fr\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/06\/mhalbi-constantinois-671x1024.jpg 671w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Mhalbi, Creamy rice powder dessert<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How to make Mhalbi with orange blossom water<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>This dessert is simple, but it needs gentle heat and steady stirring for the smoothest result.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1) Make the rice powder<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Grind raw rice using a coffee grinder or a blender (Thermomix works well).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Sift the powder to remove any coarse bits.

If it\u2019s too coarse, the cream will have a slightly grainy texture.<strong>Why is my cream darker in color?\u00a0<\/strong>This may be due to the type of milk used or slightly longer cooking. Gentle heat helps maintain a lighter color.<strong>Can I flavor it with something other than orange blossom water?\u00a0<\/strong>Yes. Vanilla, rose water, or a very fine lemon zest add a different touch without changing the essence of the dessert.<strong>Can I make a lighter version?\u00a0<\/strong>You can use semi-skimmed or plant-based milk, keeping the same proportions to maintain the texture.<strong>How can I achieve an elegant presentation?\u00a0<\/strong>Use a piping bag for a neat finish or smooth the surface with the back of a slightly damp spoon.<strong>Can it be served warm?\u00a0<\/strong>Yes, but the texture will be softer. Chilling gives it better structure and a fresher mouthfeel.<\/p><\/li><\/ul><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Other Desserts to try<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a
