I had a 20oz can of Lychee, so I made this recipe. I don't see in the recipe if you are supposed to drain the can of lychee or not, so I didn't and the recipe is too runny. I should've drained the can. The recipe is very delicious!!!

This is amazingly easy and amazingly good. I didn't have lychees, so substituted crushed pineapple. And I needed to use up some whole milk, so I used that instead of the nonfat. So simple, and the fruit flavors and creamy texture are wonderful. Why bake rice pudding in the oven? No need with this recipe.

Made this and was curious how it would taste as I was making it...and WOW! YUMMY! It is really great and flavorful! I will try not to cook the fruit as much, so there are bigger chunks in the final product. Didn't have lychees, but substituted canned pineapple...if it was that good, can't wait to try the Lychees! Thanks for posting this!

This is a really simple recipe which could generally be made with pantry ingredients that you will have readily on hand. It’s SO easy and SO delicious! I didn’t have a can of lychees available but I did have some canned mango slices, so I used those. The instructions were easy to follow, the blend of flavours fantastic. I doubled the recipe (I was serving three) – and everyone loved this. Thanks, Amis. This will be a recipe I’ll be using again and again!
