Notes

Adding more milk, if necessary: Different rice brands can absorb different amounts of milk, so you may need to add up to an extra 150ml of milk during the cooking time, stirring in well.
Leftovers: Keep in the fridge for 3 days, adding a splash more milk when reheating.
If it’s not thick enough: Rice pudding tends to thicken up as it cools down, so give it a good stir and see if it sets a little to the right thickness.
How to tell if it’s cooked: The cooking times in this recipe should work but to be sure it’s fully cooked, make sure the rice is fully tender. If it still has a bite to it, it will need a little longer. Add more milk if you need to.
