Ingredients

75 g (2 3/4 oz) pudding rice or short-grain rice
25 g (1 oz) caster sugar
Finely grated zest of one small lemon

A little freshly grated or ground nutmeg, to sprinkle (optional)

Instructions

Preheat oven to 150ºC/130ºC fan/gas mark 2. For rice pudding, lightly grease an 850ml (1 1/2 pint) ovenproof dish.
Put rice, caster sugar and lemon zest into prepared dish. Pour in milk; stir gently to mix. Sprinkle top with nutmeg, if you like.
Bake in oven for about 2 hours or until top is lightly browned. Remove from oven; leave to stand for about 10 minutes before serving.

Dietary tip
You can make this dairy-free and suitable for vegan diets by using almond milk instead of cow's milk.
