Recipe Baked Rice Pudding

[Caribbean girl]

When I cook rice, I always tend to steam it. I have also tried frying it before, but have never baked it. I came across this recipe the other day for a baked rice pudding and thought I should share it.

Ingredients:

4 cups milk
1 cup raw white rice
1/3 cup sugar, or to taste
1/2 cup raisins
Rind of lime, grated
Salt to taste

Method:

Wash rice and mix with other ingredients in a buttered baking dish with cover. Bake in slow oven until rice is soft, for about 2 hours.
Remove cover during cooking and stir a little, but not during last 1/2 hour; allow crust to form.
Serve hot or cold with raisins, caramel or fruit sauce.

We always have rice in the house - always, always...but I've never actually tried it in a sweet dish before. It's always served with savory stuff! But I'm keen to try something different with it and shake up my view on plain white rice!

Rice pudding is a classic British dish! You will find lots of examples if you Google Rice Pudding. Pretty well the same recipe as this... I grew up on it! You need to use short grain starchy rice for the best creamy results. Delia Smith uses evaporated milk as well as whole milk. And the nutmeg is a must!!!

I love rice pudding with raisins and cinnamon and sugar. I eat it for breakfast most of the time or as a snack. No one else in my house likes rice pudding so I don't make it often because I would have to freeze it and eat it over time.

I've never made rice pudding but I have had it and it's delicious. It's not a surprise that it's another British dish that I love. I seem to favor British cuisine, it's just so hearty and comforting. I'm always on the lookout for good British recipes; I'll definitely be trying this one out.
