The Process Of Cooking

Step 1. In order to cook rice you’ll need sugar, salt, cinnamon and full-cream milk.

Step 2. Wash the rice with cold water. Pour milk, add salt (this way the milk won’t boil over). Wait till rice boils (the fire under it should be high). Add sugar and vanilla. Turn fire down and boil it for 25 minutes. You need to constantly mix the rice. This way it won’t burn slightly.

Step 3. The rice’s consistence should become cream-like.

Step 4. Pour the pudding into a small flat container and put it into the oven for 30 minutes. The temperature should be 150 oC.

Step 5. You may turn on a “grill” mode once there are the last 5 minutes left. This way you’ll get a crust on the pudding. Only don’t get to far with it! Your rice pudding is ready!
