Method
step 1
Heat the oven to 150C/fan 130C/gas 2. Butter a 1.5-litre ovenproof dish. Gently heat the sugar, milk and cream in a pan until just below simmering. Stir in the butter, rice and vanilla, then carefully tip into the baking dish.
step 2
Bake for 30 minutes then stir well and bake for another 30 minutes. Take out and stir again then return to the oven for a final 30 minutes without stirring. By this time the rice should be tender and creamy with a golden top. Serve hot with jam, if you like.
