OLD-FASHIONED RICE CUSTARD

I don't remember where or how I found this dessert. When I took it to a family reunion many years ago, however, a great-uncle was sure I'd used my great-grandmother's recipe! Church suppers are among the places I've carried my rice custard. At home, I like to have it warm for dinner. Then, the next morning, I'll frequently enjoy the leftovers cold for my breakfast. This dish is one I've been making for nearly as long as I've been married-and that's 42 years. My husband and I were true childhood sweethearts (I have known him since I was 3-1/2!). We have a daughter and two grandchildren. They live 15 minutes away, and they're the center of our life.

RICE CUSTARD

Nice quick easy recipe to make and a great way to use left over boiled/steamed rice. NOTE - I recently broke the dish I normally cook this rice custard in and the one I use now though the same size is deeper with a small surface area and it now takes about 55 minutes to cook through.

Time 35m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 cups cooked rice
3 eggs
1/2 cup caster sugar
3 cups milk (I use reduced fat)
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg (extra)
1/2 cup raisins, I don't normally use (optional)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 180 degree Celsius.
  • Grease a 6 cup oven proof casserole dish.
  • Place rice in casserole dish.
  • Beat eggs and sugar together until thick and creamy, slowly add in milk beating continuously, add raisins (if using), then nutmeg. Pour custard over rice and give a stir.
  • Sprinkle extra nutmeg on top.
  • Put into oven and cook for 25 to 30 minutes (should have a firm look about it when cooked check not in the intro).
  • Serve warm with a dollop of thick cream.

Tips:

  • To ensure a smooth custard, whisk the eggs and sugar together until well combined before adding the milk and cream.
  • To prevent the custard from curdling, temper the eggs. To do this, slowly whisk a small amount of the hot milk mixture into the egg mixture, then slowly whisk the tempered egg mixture back into the remaining hot milk mixture.
  • Cook the custard over medium heat, stirring constantly, until it has thickened and coats the back of a spoon.
  • To prevent the custard from forming a skin on top, cover the surface with plastic wrap while it is cooling.
  • For a richer custard, use heavy cream instead of milk.
  • To add flavor to the custard, use a variety of spices, herbs, or extracts. Some popular options include vanilla extract, almond extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and ginger.
  • Serve the custard warm or chilled, depending on your preference.

Conclusion:

Stirred lemon rice custard is a delicious and versatile dessert that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a relatively easy recipe to make, and it can be customized to suit your own taste preferences. Whether you serve it warm or chilled, this custard is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
