Urgentish question about rice pud

11 replies

Racers · 16/03/2006 15:32

Am making some for the first time. It is half an hour into a 2 hour cooking time (going off the packet instructions) and I have a carton of single cream in the fridge which I'd like to use to make it lovely and creamy. When should I add it or is adding it a bad idea?
Thanks.

I'm going to be freezing most of it, by the way - I expect that doesn't make any difference but just in case...

I've no reason for thinking htis but I'd just stir it in at the end and (if eating it fresh which you're not) heat it through.

Thanks Soupy, that makes sense. I don't use cream in cooking normally so I didn't know if it would curdle or something Blush

Um, I expected a lot more of the milk to soak into the rice (you can tell I've never had homemade), presume this is normal as have followed the instructions pretty carefully. There's about a pint of excess milk (used 1.5pts). Any ideas what I can use it for (obviously some will go with the rice but there's way too much to use it all this way).

starlover · 16/03/2006 17:23
