WORLD'S BEST RICE PUDDING

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Heat the butter in a 4 quart saucepan. When frothy, add the rice and cook for 1 minute. Slowly add the milk, pinch of salt, sugar, vanilla and 1/2 of the cranberries and bring to under a boil. Transfer to a 9-inch square baking pan and set in the oven. Bake uncovered for 1 1/2 hours, stirring every 15 minutes, then bake undisturbed for another 30 minutes. Then stir in the remaining 1/2 of the cranberries and bake for another 30 minutes (for a total of 2 1/2 hours).
• Variations: you can to add heavy cream in the last 30 minutes of baking. Or if you want a crusty topping, reduce sugar to 1/4 cup. Once out of oven, crumble brown sugar and butter over the rice pudding and place under the broiler until melted and bubbly.

BEST EVER RICE CUSTARD PUDDING

Steps:

• Beat eggs and salt a little, add sugar then milk with splash of vanilla essence (optional). Put rice or sago in a buttered dish, pour over the egg mixture and sprinkle with a pinch of nutmeg (optional). Set in a dish of water and bake slowly in the oven at 160 c (325F) until custard sets.
• Extra Info: The milk in New Zealand is not watered down, still has cream in it, making it a creamy rice pudding. If not in NZ or Australia, then you can use Half and Half. I also add sultanas (raisins) to this recipe on occasion, which I cook to plump, with the rice beforehand. Sometimes I dot the top of the rice pudding with knobs of butter in order to get a brown skin.
