This comforting and creamy Greek treat is a great way to add more calcium into your little one’s diet – not to mention a nice dessert for mummies too!
Ingredients:
(Makes 8 small bowls)
1 cup rice
2 liters full cream milk
1 cup white sugar
3 tablespoons cornflour
1 teaspoon vanilla sugar
1/2 cup water
cinnamon to garnish
Method:
Place milk, rice and sugar in saucepan and cook on high heat. Constantly stir ingredients with wooden spoon.
Bring milk to boil and add vanilla sugar. Continue stirring for a few minutes.
Lower heat to medium and allow to cook for 35 minutes (stir every 5 minutes).
Add cornflour into 1/2 cup of water and stir until it dissolves.
Slowly add dissolved cornflour into saucepan and stir for 2 minutes (if you see the mixture is too runny, add another tablespoon of cornflour, or if too thick, add a drop of milk).
Place rice pudding into bowls and sprinkle with cinnamon.
Allow to cool for a few minutes and serve warm, or cover with cling wrap and place in fridge for up to five days.
