Indian pudding is an old-fashioned desert still served in some local restaurants.
We love the addition of fruit compote and ice cream, which brings this old treat well into the realm of a delicacy. Add fruits and simmer 5 minutes more, or until fruits are plumped up and soft. To Make the Indian Pudding Preheat the oven to 275 F. Heat 2 cups of the milk until very hot and pour it slowly over the cornmeal, stirring constantly. Cook in a double boiler over simmering water for 10-15 minutes, until the cornmeal mixture is creamy. Add the remaining ingredients and mix well.
