Rice Pudding Recipe
This creamy stovetop rice pudding can be served hot or cold. It thickens on cooling, so stir in a little extra milk if serving cold. We served our pudding warm with rhubarb. Whipped cream, ice cream or stewed fruit would also be delicious accompaniments.

What a lovely recipe this is - much better than some I have tried. A very tasty pudding and simple too!!!
That's a heck of a good recipe! brilliant!!!
Thanks for this great recipe. It got a big thumbs up from the family. Simple but delicious and great on a cold wintery night like tonight.
This is great for my toddler, much easier than the recipe I already had. Thanks heaps
This is absolutely divine on a cold night. I wish I'd made more....
Great recipe
Ahh Elise, what would of my fat food craving due in a week pregnent
wife done with out this amazing yummy recipe . thankyou so much now we just gotta make by the drum full.
regards Paul.
Yummo. This recipe is excellent. It is inexpensive, so easy to make and does not stick to the bottom of the saucepan like my old recipe! Next time I'm going to crush up some meringues, top with the rice and put berry sauce on top. Mmmmmm Crunchy, creamy and sweeeeeet.
Fabulous! Too easy.
Another great recipe of yours! :)
I quadrupled the ingredients to make a larger amount, and it turned out really nicely; creamy and sweet.
(I did choose to use half the amount of vanilla essence though).
Just made this and it was fantastic. Big hit with the family!
I've used this recipe before and it's great. I tend to double the recipe so that there are leftovers we can have cold the next day. Sometimes I substitute the cream for coconut cream/milk. Adds a different flavour to it. Great served with fresh or canned fruit. Love it, and many of the other recipes on this blog.

Great Recipe
great recipe! my whole family loved it, very quick and easy too! it made quite a small amount so I tripled it. highly recommended.
Hi! I like using this recipe because it doesn't take that long to make. Tastes good too. Just wondering if there is a substitute for the cream. Or more milk would be ok? My sister can't take the cream! Any help appreciated. Thanks! P
This was delicious!! Impossible to stuff up too =) No more Le Rice for me!
Hi, just wondering if it would be okay to use light coconut milk instead of normal milk??
A really yummy recipe - thank you! Next time I make it I will probably use light cream...as it really does thicken a lot on cooling, so I'm thinking light cream will still add enough fat to thicken it up just nicely. Definitely double the recipe so you can have some the next day too!
Absolutely divine! So easy to make. My husband requested I make rice pudding as he had great childhood memories of his mother making it in Winter. So straight to Exclusively Food I came. I whipped it up tonight, and he was very impressed - even went as far as saying it was better than he remembered. I quadrippled the recipe and it still turned out. Now we have dessert for tomorrow night too! I just cooked out the milk mixture for a little longer. Thanks Exclusively Food, you've done it again!
Tastes as good, if not better, than the rice pudding I fondly remember from my childhood. I'll be adding this recipe to my permanent repertoire. Seriously good.
