Every time I make a rice pudding (on the stove top) the milk burns and makes a mess of the bottom of the pan. I have the heat on extremely low, the lowest the gas will allow.
Anyone got a tip on how to avoid this? (Other than buy tinned rice pudding).
I had thought of that, but I am on an economy drive, and saw that doing it in the oven requires you to cook it for a couple of hours, whereas on the stove top you can cook it in half an hour. (Energy saving exercise here!) Not sure though, whether your oven uses less energy than the stove top, any idea anyone?
The trick here windy is to cook several things at once then, like stews and slow cooked dishes, along side your pudding, rice is so much better done in the oven, it has that beautiful skin on that i crave yum yum!!!
A note of caution if you decide to cook several dishes in the oven at the same time as the rice pudding. Avoid anything with onions in it, the rice picks up the flavour very easily and it will spoil the pudding. DM
