My version of ginataang mais with macapuno. Ginataang mais is a Filipino rice and corn sweet dessert or rice pudding and it really brings back a lot of memories of my grandmother Anastacia. There is one ingredient that not really a very traditional Filipino ginataang mais. I found out that the black rice it has a nutty flavor which makes this ginataan extra enjoyable to eat. Black rice is a type of whole grain glutinous rice usually eaten in Thailand. If you can't find black rice, just white glutinous rice that would be great. You can use corn kernel in a can but fresh is always best. This dish is that it can be served warm or cold, after meal or just a snack that every Filipino loves!
