Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 cups cooked white rice
- 2 cups milk
- 0.5 cups sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 1 cup fresh fruit (e.g., diced strawberries, blueberries, or mango)
- 3 egg whites
- 0.25 teaspoons cream of tartar
- 3 tablespoons powdered sugar
- 0.125 teaspoon salt
Instructions
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and lightly grease a medium-sized, oven-safe baking dish.
In a medium saucepan, combine the cooked white rice, milk, sugar, and salt. Heat over medium heat, stirring occasionally, until the mixture thickens slightly (about 5-7 minutes).
Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the vanilla extract.
Gently fold in the fresh fruit of your choice, ensuring even distribution throughout the rice mixture. Transfer this mixture into the prepared baking dish and spread it out evenly.
In a clean, dry mixing bowl, combine the egg whites and cream of tartar. Using an electric mixer or whisk, beat the egg whites until soft peaks form.
Gradually add the powdered sugar, one tablespoon at a time, while continuing to beat the egg whites. Beat until stiff peaks form, giving the meringue a glossy appearance.
Spoon or pipe the meringue over the rice and fruit mixture, spreading it evenly to cover the top completely. You can create decorative peaks using the back of a spoon, if desired.
Place the baking dish in the preheated oven and bake for 12-15 minutes, or until the meringue is golden brown on top.
Remove from the oven and let it cool for 10 minutes before serving. The Fruity Rice Meringue can be enjoyed warm or at room temperature.
