Ingredients

  • 4 cups milk
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • ½ cup granulated sugar
  • Pinch salt
  • ½ cup uncooked basmati rice
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

    Cup of Yum
  1. Combine the milk, cinnamon stick, sugar, and salt in a medium saucepan.
  2. Bring the mixture to a boil. Keep an eye on it so it doesn’t boil over.
  3. Stir in the rice and allow it to simmer over medium-low heat until the rice is tender, about 30 minutes.
  4. Remove the cinnamon stick.
  5. In a small mixing bowl, whisk the egg.
  6. While constantly whisking, add about ½ a cup of the warm rice mixture to the egg to temper the egg.
  7. Pour the egg mixture into the pot.
  8. Whisk until the rice mixture comes to a boil and thickens, about 1-2 minutes.
  9. Remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
  10. Let the pudding cool to room temperature.
  11. Serve warm or transfer to an air-tight container and place it into the fridge until ready to serve.

Notes

  • Milk: Whole milk will give you richer, creamier rice pudding. You can also substitute heavy cream or half-and-half for part of the milk.
  • Cinnamon stick: You can omit this if you prefer.
  • Granulated sugar: Feel free to adjust the amount of sugar to taste.
  • Vanilla extract: You can omit or adjust to taste.
  • Nutrition values are estimates.
