Number Of Ingredients 10

1/4 cup currants or raisins (optional)
2 tablespoons golden rum (optional)
3 cups half-and-half or whole milk
1/2 cup rice, preferably jasmine or basmati
1/4 cup sugar
1/2 teaspoon coarse salt
1 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
2 plums, sliced

Steps:

  • If using the currants, soak them in the rum in a small bowl.
  • Place the half-and-half, rice, sugar, salt, vanilla, cinnamon, and nutmeg in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 20 minutes, continuing to stir.
  • Drain the currants and stir them into the pudding, then cook for an additional 2 minutes, or until the rice is al dente. Spoon the pudding into bowls and serve immediately, or spread it into a serving dish, cover, and chill. Press plastic wrap directly on the surface of the pudding to prevent it from forming a skin (unless you like it!).
  • Serve pudding in a bowl along with slices of fresh plums.

This rice pudding is a great make-ahead dessert. I love that I can make it the day before and then just pop it in the oven when I'm ready to serve it.

This rice pudding is the best I've ever had! It's so creamy and flavorful, and the raisins add a nice touch of sweetness. I'll definitely be making this again.
