Marlaoh
List of Ingredients
- 1 cup half and half
- 1 cup milk
- 1 cup 100% orange juice
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/4 vanilla bean or 1/2 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 2 tablespoons chopped orange zest
- 3 whole eggs, beaten well
- 3 cups warm cooked basmati rice (right out of the steamer or cooking pot)
- 1/3 cup dried cranberries
- 10 fresh mint sprigs
Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Combine half and half and milk in a medium saucepan. Add sugar, vanilla and orange zest. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, while stirring constantly, until sugar is dissolved. The mixture should smell like a creamsicle. Place beaten eggs in a medium mixing bowl. Slowly pour hot liquid into eggs while whisking constantly until all liquid is absorbed. Whisk in orange juice; then stir in rice and cranberries. Pour mixture back into saucepan and cook, stirring constantly over medium heat until mixture becomes hot and slightly thickened, about 3 to 4 minutes. Coat a 9x9 inch baking dish with nonstick cooking spray. Pour warm pudding mixture into dish and bake for 15 minutes. Check to see if pudding is softly set (it should jiggle when shaken). Use large tablespoon or ice cream scoop to portion out rounded spoonfuls of hot pudding into ten pudding or parfait dishes.
- Yield: 10 (7 ounce) servings
