Notes

There you have it - the absolute simplest rice pudding you will ever make.

I used pudding rice which I think is mostly a UK product, but any short-grain rice such as arborio will work well. I have even used long grain and basmati and both still work well.

You can add a pinch of nutmeg if you like or maybe a few raisins. Vanilla is also a nice addition, but the recipe is great just the way it is.

Hey that’s a great recipe you have there. Thanks for sharing. Your simplified version of instant pot rice pudding is awesome. I can not wait to try it. I am only a beginner cook, but I think I should be able to manage this. I noticed in your video that you added vanilla seeds, but I only have essence - will this be ok? Thanks again for such an easy recipe.

  You don’t need to add vanilla at all if you don’t want, but 1 tsp of essence would be fine. I’m sure you will enjoy it.
