Ingredients
435 ml (1 3/4 cups) milk
300 ml pouring cream
110 g (1/2 cup) medium grain calrose rice, rinsed and drained
70 g (1/3 cup) caster sugar
2 tsp vanilla extract
2 egg yolks
125 ml (1/2 cup) Baileys Original Irish Cream liqueur
Pinch of ground nutmeg
Instructions
- Preheat the oven to 170°C (150°C fan-forced).
- In a medium saucepan over medium heat, combine milk, cream, rice, sugar, and vanilla extract. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the mixture begins to simmer gently.
- Remove from heat and quickly stir in the egg yolks and Baileys until smooth and combined.
- Pour the mixture into a 6-cup (1.5-litre) ovenproof dish.
- Bake for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally.
- Sprinkle nutmeg over the top and return to the oven for another 15–20 minutes, or until the rice is tender and the top is lightly golden.
- Let the pudding rest for 10 minutes before serving. Optionally, drizzle with extra Baileys for added indulgence.
Notes
Replace Baileys with extra milk or cream for a non-alcoholic version.
Add raisins or sultanas before baking for extra texture.
Use arborio rice if calrose rice is unavailable.
For a dairy-free option, use coconut milk and omit the Baileys.
Reheat gently with a splash of milk or cream if the pudding thickens too much.
