I've always tried to make rice Pudding but failed miserably :-(. I found this rice at an Asian market, looked at several recipes and came up with this! Perfect, every time: rich and creamy, lots of interesting flavours, and not too sweet. Finally success! :-)
NB: Check photo below to get the right rice ;-)
