Description

Ingredients
•
1 cup uncooked white rice
•
2 cups water
•
3 eggs, beaten
•
2 cups milk
•
1/2 cup white sugar
•
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
•
1/2 teaspoon salt
•
1/3 cup raisins
•
1 pinch ground nutmeg
Directions
1
Combine rice and 2 cups water in a 3-quart saucepan. Bring to a boil; reduce heat, cover, and simmer until tender and water is absorbed, about 25 to 30 minutes.
2
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
3
Mix egg yolks, half-and-half, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt together in a large bowl until combined.
4
Stir in cooked rice and raisins. Transfer into a 10x6x2-inch baking dish.
5
Bake uncovered in the preheated oven for 40 minutes; stirring halfway through, until the pudding is set but still creamy and a knife inserted near the center comes out mostly clean. Sprinkle with nutmeg and let cool slightly before serving warm.
