- Prep Time: 0hrs 5 mins

Ingredients
- 2 cups Rice
- 500 ml Water
- A little Salt
- 1 Tbsp Butter
- 4 Tbsp Sugar
- 1 Tin Ideal Milk
- A little Milk or Water
Method
1. Cook the rice by boiling in normal way OR:
TIP - cook rice in a Pyrex dish in the oven when you cook your Sunday roast - in this way you can take advantage of the oven being on and using the electricity to cook pudding for after at the same time a cooking the meat.
2. If cooking alongside the Sunday roast simply put the rice in the dish and cover with about 1 inch of water and leave to cook - the water should boil off but take care not to let the cooking rice dry out.
3. Rinse off the hot rice if you wish to get rid of the rice starch residue
4. Add the butter and wipe it into the cooking bowl with grease proof paper (or simply use the paper from the butter pack).
5 Add the sugar and fold into the rice.
6. Add the ideal milk and place back into the oven for a further 15 to 20 mins or until the milk and rice picture begins to "brown" on the top.

The Story Behind The Recipe
This is probably the dish that is most familiar from my childhood. In fact this is the one that I remember mum cooking first for me. She always did it on a Sunday alongside the roast. Occasionally she would forget she had put it in the oven and of course all the water would boil off the cooking rice and the first thing we knew about it was when smoke started pouring out of the oven - which would be followed by shrieks and cursing. Nevertheless it was more often a big hit than a failure.
