Now that the little ones are heading back to school, it's time for moms in the kitchen to start racking their brains again. Once the kids come home, things get even busier with having to prepare snacks to tide them over. For these hardworking moms, let us introduce a snack that won't leave the little ones hungry - rice pudding. Most people probably haven't even heard of it before.
Ingredients
- Milk - 6 cups
- Sugar - 1/2 cup
- Salt - 1/2 teaspoon
- Long grain rice - 1/2 cup
- Vanilla extract - 2 teaspoons
Preparation Method
1. In a large pot, add 5 cups of the milk and the salt, and heat over medium heat until it comes to a boil.
2. Once it boils, add the rice, then reduce the heat and stir.
3. Cook for 50 to 60 minutes, stirring occasionally. It should be cooked until it thickens like yogurt.
4. Once it has thickened nicely, remove from the heat and stir in the vanilla.
5. Once done, let it cool and then chill it in the refrigerator. Just before serving, pour the remaining half cup of milk over the top.
