Rj's Rice Pudding


I think that i've come up with a great rice pudding recipe. anyone who has tasted my rice pudding says so anyway.

Steps


Combine the raisins and rice and place in a strainer.
Wash the raisin and rice mixture under hot tap water.
In a pot with a tight fitting lid , bring 4 cups of water to a boil.
Add raw rice and raisins and stir.
Cover , reduce heat and simmer for 25 minutes.
Meanwhile , in another pot combine the milk , sugar , egg yolks and corn starch.
Heat over medium high heat stirring mixture constantly to avoid burning until the mixture thickens to the consistency of thick cream.
Remove from heat , stir in the nutmeg and vanilla.
In a large bowl , beat the egg whites until they are stiff enough for form peaks.
Then slowly whisk in the thickened milk mixture.
When the rice and raisin mixture is cooked , stir into the creamy custard mixture.
At this point , you can dish up the pudding in serving dishes and sprinkle lightly with cinnamon or , you can bake the pudding mixture in a 350f oven for about 45 minutes and then serve sprinkled lightly with cinnamon.
