English Noodles - Easy Rice Pudding.

First of all get some left over cooked rice and throw it in a pot.

Chuck in some milk and then give it a stir, chuck it on a high heat and bring to the boil and then simmer for about 10 mins.

Throw in a couple of spoonfulls of sugar and if you like a little vannilla, I never bother with the vannilla though. Give it a good stir and simmer for another 5 mins.

Chuck in an egg and quickly stir it in, at this point you can add a little more milk also if you like, keep it on the heat for another couple of mins and then take it off.

You can now enjoy eating it, though I always eat it cold, so in to the fridge it goes for a couple of hours and then served with cold milk and a little grated ginger on top.

Might be nice with a little coconut milk in it at the start ...... just a thought. I used to get a lot of this when I was a kid but I don't think there was an egg in it and it always had a ' skin ' on top. Still, thanks for the idea.....will start experiment No 1 manana.

Hmmm. saying manana makes me think a banana might work too ...... or am I straying from the noble path ?

It thickens the mixture to a nice consitancy.

Yep, I love it with skin on also, I think you have to cook it in the oven to get the skin.

Does it taste the same as the stuff out of the tin that everyone used to eat as a kid?
06-10-2009, 01:48 AM

It looks the same, and I always bang a load of sugar in anyway.

Well, I gave it a go this morning :

Scene of experiment. Our compact open plan kitchen.

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...ce_pud_004.jpg

Assembled ingrediants

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...ce_pud_006.jpg

The finished result.

Sadly, experiment number one was not a success for the following reasons :

1) Not enough sugar. I always do this. They say too much sugar is not good for you but they don't tell you that in a pudding you might as well throw caution to the wind ..... I needed about 3 times as much sugar .

2) Could have done with more milk so that I would have developed a skin.

3) I put the sliced bananas at the bottom of the dish. They should have been mixed in with the pud for more flavour.

Anyway, it turned out edible but bland. I tried it out on the girlfriend after pinning her to the floor and forcing her mouth open. Even after all this time she still regards my culinary experiments as a possible attempt on her life with a view to inheriting the house and moving a new younger woman in. She lives yet and concurred with the need for more sugar.

Ah well, next time will be better and its only using up leftovers so nothing wasted. In fact, I've saved a few baht on todays dog food ....... if he shows up.

My next attempt will remedy the above faults.

Yeah sorry, I fucked up today as well. I went to Tesco and bought the eggs, sugar, vanilla and flour and then I got home and we've only got Pilau rice. It's not gonna work with yellow rice. I'll get my wife to pick some up on the way home from work and try tonight.

I've never tried it with raisins, but i did a quick google to make sure I wouldn't forget anything this morning and it suggested raisins. (I know i forgot the rice:)) Then when in tesco they had a dried fruit stand and they had dried stawberrys. I might give them a try.

Thanks for raisin this question. I tend to put 'em in cornflakes,porridge and pancakes and was tempted to put them in my 1st experimental pudding but the gf said that if she was made to consume any more raisins she might kill me in my sleep so I let it go and used bananas instead.

Rice Pudding made in a rice cooker.

O.k here's mine. Pretty much the same as Noodles just made completely in a rice cooker.

I ended up just going to the restaurant on the corner and buying a bag of cooked rice for 10bt. This is only just over half the bag.
https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1624.jpg

Then I covered it with milk, gave it a stir and added a cinnamon stick. I thought it was too much milk but needed more in the end.

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1626.jpg

Then I closed the lid and pressed 'cook' and left it for 10 min.

Whilst I was waiting i had a glass of milk with some of the 'posh' dried strawberries.:)

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1628.jpg

This was a mistake because when I came back after about 5 min to check it, the milk was all boiling over and it made a bit of a mess.

What I would do next time is cook with the lid closed for 2-3min just to get the milk boiling and then open the lid and let it simmer.

I fixed the problem by adding more milk to bring the temperature down and then the rest of the rice to compensate the extra milk.

Then I added 2 1/2 spoons of sugar.

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1647.jpg

And a teaspoon of vanilla essence.

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1651.jpg

And let it simmer for another 5 min.

Then I decided to cut up the dried strawberrys and add them on top when served instead of mixing them in because they'd probably turn everything red.

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1655.jpg

Then I added the egg and stirred it for a few more mins

https://teakdoor.com/Gallery/albums/u...91006-1656.jpg

The egg really did bind everything together. I wouldn't have thought to add the egg without being told.

And there it is. It was bloody delicious. Cheers Noodles, green on the way!:)

+ My kitchen smells bloody lovely. It reminds me of a French skiing trip.:)

That does look nice. I bet the strawberrys really added to it. I seem to remember mixing strawberry jam into my rice puddings as a kid. Shit, now I'm drooling like Homer.

Are you gonna give it another shot? I'd recommend going for 2 or 2 1/2 tablespoons of sugar.

Mines perfect for me but I know that it will be too sweet for my wife when she gets home.

For sure . Maybe next week but with tablespoons of sugar not teaspoons. Also, I can see more milk is needed , and then hopefully I can come up with a pudding with a skin on top !
