Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1000 ml Milk
- 150 g Short-grain rice (e.g., Arborio or pudding rice)
- 75 g Granulated sugar
- 1 tsp Vanilla extract
- 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon
- 20 g Butter
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 pinch Salt
- 50 g Raisins (optional)
- 1 piece Fresh nutmeg (optional, for grating on top)
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 150°C (300°F) and grease a baking dish (approximately 1-liter capacity) with butter.
In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the milk, rice, sugar, vanilla extract, ground cinnamon, and a pinch of salt. Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until it begins to simmer.
Lower the heat and gently simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent the rice from sticking to the pan. The rice will begin to soften but will not be fully cooked at this stage.
Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the mixture cool slightly for 5-10 minutes.
In a small bowl, beat the eggs until smooth. Slowly whisk a few spoonfuls of the warm rice mixture into the eggs to temper them and prevent curdling. Then, pour the tempered eggs back into the saucepan with the rice mixture, stirring constantly to combine.
If using raisins, fold them into the mixture at this stage.
Pour the prepared mixture into the greased baking dish. Dot the top with small pieces of butter for a richer, golden top.
Place the baking dish in the oven and bake for approximately 1 hour and 15 minutes, or until the top is set and lightly golden. The center should have a slight wobble but no visible liquid.
Optionally, grate a small amount of fresh nutmeg over the top for added flavor and aroma.
Remove the baked rice cream from the oven and let it cool for 10-15 minutes before serving. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store any leftovers covered in the refrigerator and consume within 3 days.
