Rice Pudding

Ingredients

• 3/4 c. of medium grain rice or long grain rice
• 1 1/2 c of water
• 1/2 c. of sugar
• 1/2 tsp. of vanilla

• 1/4 tsp. of salt (heaping)

Directions

1. First bring the rice, the water and salt to a boil over med-high heat.
2. Then simmer covered until water has been absorbed (approximately 15 min).
3. Next stir in the milk and the sugar and cook uncovered over medium heat for 30-40 min, stirring frequently especially towards the end of cooking.
4. Note:
5. The pudding is done when the rice and milk have amalgamated into a thick porridge-like consistency.
6. This does not need to OVERCOOK.
7. Now remove from heat and stir in the vanilla.

Curry for Kids

Was watching a Taiwan program on Astro now on home ideas. Someone had suggested to add in some milk powder to hot spicy curry to reduce the spiciness, but still maintaining the curry taste so that kids may be able to consume it.
