Portuguese Sweet Rice Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• In a large saucepan over high heat combine sugar and milk. When bubbles form at the edges, stir in rice and reduce heat to medium-low. Cook 60 minutes, stirring often, until rice is tender. Do not allow to boil.
• Remove from heat and vigorously stir in beaten eggs, a little at a time, until well incorporated. Serve warm.

Steps:

• 1. Bring water, milk, butter, and rice to a simmer. Add lemon peel, sugar, and pinch of salt.
• 2. Cook over low heat, stirring occasionally, for about 25 minutes or until rice is tender.
• 3. Remove from heat. Add in egg yolks one at a time, mixing after each addition. Stir in vanilla.
• 4. Return to heat and bring to a boil. Cook over low heat for an additional 5 minutes.
• 5. Remove lemon rind. Pour into a serving platter or individual dishes and sprinkle generously with cinnamon!

Steps:

• Bring water to a boil in medium saucepan.
• Add rice and cover, simmering for 20 minutes.
• Add milk, sugar and lemon rind, stirring constantly until thickened to oatmeal consistency, about 15-20 minutes.
• It will also thicken some while cooling.
• Pour into one large serving plate and remove lemon rind.
• Spread flat and allow to cool on wire rack.
• You can be decorative with cinnamon by pinching a bit between your fingers and place while your hand is no more than an inch away from the rice (criss cross patterns are traditional), or you can just dust the entire top with the cinnamon.
• Serve at room temp, but refrigerate uneaten portion.
