Rice pudding..

[Pebbledashery]

I'm obsessed with rice pudding at the moment.. Anyone else like it? 😋

[Popcornbetty]

Anyone have any good recipes for a baked creamy rice pud? Is evaporated milk and sugar best or condensed milk? Hmm may have to experiment.

[GETTINGLIKEMYMOTHER]

Yes, it’s delish.
I recently made an extra big one at dd’s because she had a lot of full cream milk that needed using up. There was only risotto rice, not pudding ditto, but TBH you couldn’t tell the difference in the end product.

[ToffeeNotCoffee]

Oh yeah !

Bring it on. Rice pudding, tapioca pudding, sago. On a good day I'll even eat semolina pudding.

Maybe not with jam. I like jam but not on a milk pudding. Maybe it's because it reminds me of damn Rosehip Syrup that they put on school semolina regardless of whether you wanted it.

Someone mentioned up thread Pakistani kheer which is lush but try making it with jaggery sugar. Oh my goodness, it's gorgeous. Proper caramel rice pudding.

[Jellykat]

Urgh its foul.. i cant even look at a picture of rice pudding!
Takes me back to junior school when you werent allowed to leave the canteen until you'd emptied your plate.. many hours sat by myself with a bowl of congealed lumpy slop (we're talking '70s)

[AlfonsoTheMango]

I love it. And I like tapioca.

[Pebbledashery]

I'm going to stock up on it at the weekend 😊

Rice pudding is best with a dusting of cinnamon sugar.

[BarbaraofSeville]

I like it and will be taking notes of all the variations from around the world mentioned on this thread.

[hiredandsqueak]

I love it. I make the one on the BBC good food site. I like lots of nutmeg on mine and raspberry jam.

My FIL and I bonded over my homemade rice pudding. MIL is not a fan and consequently FIL reckoned he hadn't had it for 30 years.

Rice pudding and tinned prunes! ❤️

1970s School dinner favourite

Oh how the ghost of you clings.........

My Dad used to make a great rice pudding. He baked it in the oven with butter and nutmeg on top to form a lovely skin.

There was a scene in Friday Night Dinner where their aunt made rice pudding instead of apple crumble. They were disappointed, to say the least !

It gave me a rice pudding craving like you would not believe !

[LaurieSchafferIsAllBitterNow]

i love it too

made with evap or coconut milk, or just milk . ALWAYS lots of butter round the dish and nutmeg grated in
Sometimes with muscovado sugar instead of normal

I have made it in the oven, and slowpot and now in my instant pot. I prefer it done in the oven, but other ways are fine.

also I |do like tinned rice pudding, but only out of the tin, cold, student stylee.

I also adore tapioca, which is very weird cos I won't eat a tomato or anything else slippery and bitty, but tapioca and sago are amazing.

Can you even buy sago anymore?? Or is it just old fashioned talk for tapioca?

[ChardonnaysPetDragon]

A good semolina pudding is the best thing ever. With some roasted apricots.

[Pebbledashery]

Yes, risotto is far too much effort. I just love the taste of rice pudding.

[MissyB1]

semolina is the devils spunk

Yes and and your problem is?

[gogohm]

Kheer is my favourite, I buy packet stuff though, delicious chilled

[KarlMaldensNose]

@WarmSausageTea

I’m not a fan, nor of risotto, which always seems like a lot of effort for very little reward.

Do agree with that and so much potential to go wrong and quite expensive to throw in bin when it does

[KarlMaldensNose]

@Pebbledashery

I've discovered a really delicious one called Rachel's rice pudding. It's just beautiful.

Is that the same as Rachel’s yoghurts ? Which are lovely as well, especially the Greek one with honey

[SnakeyTakey]

@MissyB1

Its the food of Gods and I love it. I also love semolina pudding.

too far.

semolina is the devil's spunk.

[ButForTheGrace]

Really don't like the taste or texture of tinned rice pudding - but love homemade. Done in saucepan rather than oven if short on time. Quite often throw in a few cardamoms and maybe some cinnamon and clove. Make it a bit runnier than usual to eat ice cold - lovely in this weather.

[KarlMaldensNose]

It’s a lifesaver when you have a dental abscess to be honest….even the tinned stuff or muller rice in cartons
Really nutritious and filling
Can have cold in summer and hot in winter
It’s lovely
