Ingredients

  • 1 3/4 cups cooked long grain rice I used Veetee https://www.veetee.com/us/
  • 2 cups whole milk
  • 1/4 cup granulated sugar
  • 1/2 tsp sea or kosher salt
  • 1 1/4 tsp vanilla extract
  • 1 egg lightly beaten
  • 1 tbsp unsalted butter
  • 1/4 tsp cinnamon, more for garnish, optional
  • whipped cream, optional

Instructions

  1. 1.Cook 2 packs Veetee long grain rice in microwave according to directions. Fluff up with fork and measure 1 1/2 cups cooked rice. Save the rest for another favorite rice dish.

    2.In a large saucepan, combine the milk, rice, sugar and salt. Stir and cook over a medium heat. As soon as the mixture starts to thicken, about 5 to 7 minutes, take about 3 tablespoons out and mix with beaten egg to temper the egg. Whisk together then pour back into pan. Whisk fast to incorporate the egg mixture. Continue to cook the rice pudding until it comes to a gentle boil. Add in butter. Keep whisking so it doesn’t burn. When thickened, take off heat and add vanilla. Whisk gently. You can eat warm or let cool. Once cooled. Store in fridge up to 2 days.
