Instructions

Things You'll Need

• 2 cups cooked rice
• 2 cups milk
• 2 eggs
• 1/2 cup sugar
• 1/4 tsp salt
• 1/2 dried cranberries, cherries or raisins (optional)
• Nutmeg
• 1-2 Qt Casserole Dish
• 9x13 baking pan

1. Rice Pudding Recipe

   GET THE RICE RIGHT: For ultra-creamy rice pudding, use high starch, or sticky type oriental rice. Jasmine Rice is especially creamy, Basmati rice also works well. Regular American Long Grain rice is a less desirable option, but will do in a pinch.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees

3. Rice Pudding Recipe

   Measure the rice into the casserole dish.

4. Rice Pudding Recipe

   In a mixing bowl, add the milk, eggs, sugar and salt. Beat until well mixed. Pour over rice in the casserole dish.

5. Rice Pudding Recipe

   Add dried fruit and stir to mix well. This is an optional step. I am partial to the use of the cranberries or cherries and am not a big fan of raisins in this dish.

6. Sprinkle the top with ground nutmeg. Place casserole dish into the 9x13 inch baking pan. Fill the baking pan with water until 1 inch deep. Place in the center of oven and bake about 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the middle of the custard, comes up clean. Remove from oven and cool.

7. Great served warm with whipped cream.
