- We're boys here, we're too stupid to successfully boil milk without burning it. So
we put about 3 cups of water in a 3qt saucepan, then place the milk and rice in a 2 qt saucepan, and lower
the 2qt saucepan into the 3qt saucepan. This makes a poor man's double boiler. Bring the water in the 3qt
saucepan to a slow boil. Simmer until the rice is tender, about 20 minutes. Stir frequently to prevent the
rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan.
- In a small mixing bowl, whisk together egg and sugar. Stir in six tablespoons cooked milk /
rice mixture, one tablespoon at a time.
- Stir egg mixture into the rice and cook on low heat for 5 minutes until thickened.
- Remove from heat, stir in vanilla, optional cinnamon, nutmeg. Let stand for 10 minutes.
- Add optional fruit, chocolate, candy.
Note: M&Ms or Skittles will turn the pudding weird colors, which kids will like.
