Number Of Ingredients 12

1 cup regular long grain rice
1 tablespoon butter
1 cup water
1 tablespoon sugar
4 cups half-and-half
1 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter
cinnamon stick
1 whole almonds
warm cream
cinnamon
sugar

Steps:

  • In a heavy saucepan combine rice, butter and water and salt. Bring to boil and cook covered for 10 minutes, or until water is just absorbed.
  • Add half-and-half and cinnamon stick to above. Bring to boil, stirring continuously. Let simmer, covered, for about 45 minutes. The half-and-half should be almost absorbed.
  • The results should be creamy and tender, not mushy. Add the extra butter, and some cream for extra richness.
  • Before serving, hide the almond in the porridge.
  • Serve the porridge hot, with warm cream, cinnamon, and sugar. Whoever gets the almond will be married within the year!
