1 Qt. milk
1 C. uncooked regular rice
1/8 teaspoon salt
1-1/2 teaspoon vanilla
4 egg yolks, beaten
1/2 C. sugar
1/2 C. half and half
1 teaspoon cinnamon
Combine milk, rice, salt and vanilla in a medium saucepan. Cover and cook over very low heat about 30 minutes or until rice is tender and milk is absorbed. Stir mixture occasionally. Combine remaining ingredients in a small bowl. Gradually stir about 1/4 of hot rice mixture into yolk mixture. Add yolk mixture to remaining rice mixture. Cook over low heat, stirring constantly, until mixture comes to a boil. Remove from heat. Serve warm or cold with fruit, toasted almonds or coconut. Can add a cup of raisins too.
Serves 10 to 12 people.
