Ingredients

• 50 g Ground rice
• 500 ml Whole milk
• 50 g Granulated sugar
• 1 tsp Vanilla extract
• 2 Egg yolks
• 10 g Butter (optional, for richness)
• 0.5 tsp Ground cinnamon or nutmeg (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

In a small bowl, whisk the egg yolks and set aside.

Step 2

In a medium-sized saucepan, add the ground rice and gradually pour in the milk while whisking to prevent lumps from forming.

Step 3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring frequently to prevent sticking or burning.

Step 4

Once the milk is hot, add the granulated sugar and continue to stir until it completely dissolves.

Step 5

Reduce the heat to low and cook the mixture for 10-12 minutes, stirring often, until it thickens to a smooth custard consistency.

Step 6

Remove the saucepan from heat and add the vanilla extract and butter, stirring until fully incorporated.

Step 7

Temper the egg yolks by gradually whisking a small amount of the hot custard mixture into the yolks, one spoonful at a time, to prevent the yolks from curdling.

Step 8

Slowly pour the tempered egg yolk mixture back into the saucepan with the custard, stirring constantly.

Step 9

Return the saucepan to low heat and cook for an additional 2-3 minutes, stirring continuously, until the custard is silky and thickened (do not allow it to boil).

Step 10

Remove the saucepan from the heat and let the custard cool slightly before serving. If desired, sprinkle a pinch of ground cinnamon or nutmeg on top as a garnish.

Step 11

Serve warm or refrigerate until chilled for a firmer texture. Enjoy!
