Time 55m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 11

3/4 cup uncooked short grain white rice
2 cups milk, divided
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 teaspoon fine sea salt
1 egg
1 cup dried apricots, diced
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 orange, zested
1/2 teaspoon ground cardamom
Freshly grated nutmeg, for serving

Steps:

  • Bring 1 1/2 cups water to a boil over high heat in a saucepan. Stir in your rice. Then, turn down the heat, cover the pan and let simmer for 20 minutes.
  • When the rice is done, put it in a clean saucepan with 1 1/2 cups milk, the sugar and salt. Cook this over medium heat, giving it a stir every once in awhile, until it thickens up and gets creamy, 15 to 20 minutes. Crack your egg into a small bowl and beat it with the remaining 1/2 cup milk. Slowly stir this mixture into the rice. Stir in your diced apricots and cook 2 minutes more. Take off the stove and stir in your butter, vanilla, orange zest, and cardamom. Grate some nutmeg over top.

CREAMY BROWN RICE PUDDING

This version of rice pudding uses brown rice, cinnamon, and almond extract to make a slightly nutty comfort dessert. My mother adds raisins during the last 15 minutes; she calls this 'Speckled Pup,' but I prefer my rice pudding without raisins.

Time 1h35m

Yield 1 pudding, 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

275 ml brown rice
570 ml milk
4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
1 egg, beaten
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, grated
110 g dried apricots, soaked overnight then drained and chopped
175 g prunes, soaked overnight then drained and chopped
150 g natural yoghurt

Steps:

  • In a thick-based saucepan bring the milk to the boil and sprinkle in the rice.
  • Stir, then cover and cook on a very low heat for about 50 minutes or until the rice is tender.
  • Keep an eye on it or the milk might boil over and, towards the end of the cooking time, have a peep as you may need to add a drop more milk.
  • Then take it off the heat and stir in 3 tbsps of the sugar, the beaten egg, cinnamon and nutmeg.
  • Next, butter a 4 pint (2.25 litre) casserole dish, spread half the rice mixture in it and top this with half the fruit.
  • Spread the rest of the rice on top and cover this with the remaining fruit.
  • Cover the casserole with a lid and bake in a pre-heated oven for 30 minutes at gas mark 4, 350F or 180°C.
  • At the end of the cooking time, remove the pudding from the oven, spread the yoghurt over the top and sprinkle with the remaining tbsp of sugar.
