Rice pudding

[Dollychris]

My Mum used to make a really thick and creamy rice pudding with evapourated milk. Any recipes for one using this milk please? also a recipe for a thinner rice pudding which my hubby prefers. I haven't made a traditional one for years so I'm about to start doing that now.
Thankyou.

just asked my mum as this is her way of doing it as well and she told me get 3 handfulls of puding rice (which she weighed out to be 4oz - ish!) put in a big enough oven proof dish and cover with milk and bring to the boil in the oven 150c this would take about 30mins stir in a large tin of evaporated milk and sugar and put back in the oven for 1hr 30 mins (ish!) my dad likes sultanas added, this changes the flavour completley but i hated them! as for the thinner one i guess you'd just add more milk or cream? t

his usually serves 4-6 but i always loved leftover cold rice pudding (which would set solid) with a bit more cream and demerara sugar sprinkled on top! and now i wonder why i'm on a constant diet!!

Hi dollychris, the recipe i use goes as follows:
3oz pudding rice
2oz sugar
1 pint milk
small can of evaporated milk
butter
grease an ovenproof dish with butter, rinse rice and then put into dish along with sugar and milk. put 4/5 knobs of butter on top and sprinkle with nutmeg. cover and cook for 1 hour in oven on 150. After an hour stir well then add the tin of evaporated milk. Cook for another hour and then enjoy lovely creamy rice pudding. Mine's just going in the oven now....mmmmmm.
Sorry don't really know about how to make it runnier ;-)
