"He's such a wimp, he canny knock a skin fae a Rice Pudding"
Mmmmm Rice Pudding
Homemade Scottish Rice Pudding |
Creamy and delicious. I love this warm desert
In Scotland there are two different types of Rice Pudding
The first is 'store bought' Rice Pudding in a Tin, a favourite brand is Ambrosia Rice Pudding, I love this stuff too
We can actually buy this at our local supermarket in the British Food isle here in Texas from time to time
Another type of Rice Pudding is homemade Rice Pudding
Homemade tends to be more thick and substantial where Rice Pudding in a can is more runny, both are entirely different and both are delicious in there own right
So here we are making Homemade Rice Pudding
Cooking time for this desert is 1.5 hours, but its worth waiting on
Makes 4 servings
You will need
600ml/1pint Whole Milk (Here is USA I used half and half to make it more creamy)
40g/1.5 oz Short grain or medium grain rice
Few drops of Vanilla essence
40g/1.5 oz Fine Sugar
Knob of butter
Ingredients |
- Bring milk or milk and cream combo to boil in a saucepan
Boil Milk |
- Lower heat and add rice, sugar and vanilla and simmer for a few minutes
- Transfer mixture to an open top oven proof dish, top with butter
Mixture in Oven proof Dish |
- Bake in oven until golden on top for 1.5 hours at 375F/160C
mmmm, Do you see that Skin? Yummy. |
- Spoon out into 4 individual bowls
- Serve hot, adding Cream or Half and half, to taste

Enjoy
A tip if you don't have too much time to stand at the stove is to mix all ingredients together in the oven proof dish and put straight into oven, adding an extra 15 minutes to baking time
Other variations for serving are enjoy cold.
Or to make more creamy add quarter pint of cream
Or add cinnamon and raisins to make more spicy
Another favourite way is to top with a spoonful of warmed jam
We are having Rice Pudding for afters tonight, How about you?
