Cranberry Rice Pudding Recipes

Steps:

• In a heavy saucepan, simmer milk, rice, sugar, salt and 1/2 cup half-and-half, covered, until rice is tender and most liquid is absorbed, about 30 minutes.
• While rice is cooking, in a small saucepan simmer jelly, water, cranberries or raisins, and lemon juice, covered, stirring occasionally, until jelly melts and sauce thickens slightly. Keep sauce warm.
• In a measuring cup, beat together with a fork egg, vanilla and remaining 1/4 cup half-and-half.
• Remove rice from heat and stir in egg mixture. Cook rice pudding over low heat, stirring constantly, until thick and creamy, about 5 minutes.
• Stir walnuts into sauce and serve rice pudding with sauce.

Steps:

• Combine the rice, sugar and milk in a heavy saucepan. Bring to a simmer and stir in the orange peel and cranberries.
• Cook, covered, stirring from time to time, until the rice is very tender, about 45 minutes.
• Transfer to a serving bowl or six individual dessert dishes or stemmed goblets. Refrigerate.
• Top each serving with whipped cream if desired.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan, stir together the water, uncooked rice, and salt. Bring to boiling; reduce heat. Cover and simmer for 15 to 20 minutes or until rice is tender and most of the liquid is absorbed.
• Stir evaporated milk, honey, and the 1/4 teaspoon cardamom into cooked rice. Bring just to boiling; reduce heat to medium-low. Cook, uncovered, about 5 minutes or until mixture is thick and creamy, stirring frequently.
• Just before serving, stir in cranberries and, if desired, pecans. If desired, sprinkle warm pudding with additional cardamom and serve with yogurt. Makes 6 (1/2-cup) servings.
• Tip: For softer cranberries, place dried cranberries in a small bowl; cover with boiling water. Let stand for 5 minutes. Drain well before stirring into rice pudding.
