Star Anise Orange Rice Pudding

Serves 6

Ingredients

10g butter

80g pudding rice (short grain)

55g caster sugar

100g sultanas

3 star anise

1 tsp grated nutmeg

800ml milk

Zest and juice of 1 orange

3 satsumas, peeled and segmented

Method

Pre-heat the oven to 160°C/Gas Mark 3.

Grease a 2 pint pie dish with 10g of butter.

Place the rice, sugar, sultanas and nutmeg into the pie dish and mix well.

Pour the milk, orange juice and orange zest over the rice, and mix well. Place the rice pudding dish into the pre-heated oven and allow to bake for an hour and a half – stirring a couple of times. A film will form on the top of the pudding while cooking.

Once cooked, scrape back the film. Remove the star anise, wash and dry them, then cut in half and use for decorating your puddings.

Fill 6 glasses 1/3 of the way with the rice pudding and top with satsuma segments, repeat the layers until you fill each glass. Alternatively you can do this in a large dessert bowl. Serve at room temperature.
