Baked Rice Pudding

I baked this rice pudding yesterday for my in-laws. It went down really well, as did the spaghetti bolognese that i posted yesterday!!
By using golden caster sugar melted with the butter, it creates a delicate caramel flavour to the pudding.
The rice is fluffy and the sauce is rich and creamy.

As with all baked rice puddings you get a beautiful skin on the top.

A tip for you if you don't like the skin.
When the pudding is cooked take out the oven and cover for 10 minutes, the skin will go soft and creamy and it tastes like caramel..YUMMY!!!!
