White Sugar
Delicious served with tinned peaches or pears and some runny cream!
Preheat oven to 150ºC bake.
Place the rice and sugar in a 4-6 cup ovenproof dish. Add the milk and vanilla and mix well. Add the butter. Sprinkle a little nutmeg on top of the pudding, if using. Bake, uncovered, for about 2 hours, stirring several times during cooking.
A golden brown skin will form on top as the pudding cooks. Stir this into the pudding every now and then, or remove it, depending on your tastes.
When the rice is soft and the liquid is creamy, remove from the oven. Leave to stand for 15-30 minutes while the pudding cools and thickens further.
Drizzle with golden syrup and a little extra nutmeg to serve, if desired.

Yes, while short-grain rice (like Arborio) is traditional for its creamy texture, you can also use medium-grain rice. Avoid long-grain or basmati rice, as they don’t produce the same creamy result.
If your rice pudding is too thick, it may have cooked for too long or absorbed too much liquid. Simply add a splash of warm milk or cream and stir to achieve your desired consistency.
