Ingredients

For the rice pudding:
  • 1 cup of short-grain rice
  • 4 cups of whole milk
  • 1/2 cup of heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup of sugar
  • 1/4 tsp of salt
  • 1 tsp of vanilla extract
For the lingonberry sauce:
  • 1 cup of lingonberries (fresh or frozen)
  • 1/2 cup of water
  • 1/2 cup of sugar

Equipment

  • A large pot with a lid
  • A wooden spoon
  • A medium-sized saucepan
  • A blender or food processor

Method

1. Rinse the rice in a strainer and soak it in water for at least an hour. 2. Drain the rice and put it in a large pot with the milk, cream, sugar, and salt. 3. Bring the mixture to a simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon. 4. Reduce the heat to low and cover the pot with a lid. Cook the rice pudding for about 1 hour and 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the pudding is thick and creamy. 5.

Reduce the heat and let the sauce simmer for about 10-15 minutes until it thickens. 8. Puree the sauce in a blender or food processor until smooth. 9. Serve the rice pudding in bowls with the lingonberry sauce on top.

Notes

- Make sure to stir the rice pudding frequently as it cooks to prevent it from burning or sticking to the pot. - If you don't have lingonberries, you can substitute them with other types of berries or fruit. - You can also add some spices like cinnamon or cardamom to the rice pudding for extra flavor.
