chilled rice pudding with brulee topping
Serves 4-6
1 cup (220g) arborio rice
1 vanilla bean, split, seeds scraped
600m1 creme anglaise' or store-bought custard
1/3 cup (105g) redcurrant jelly
250g punnet strawberries, halved
1 cup (220g) caster sugar
Cook the rice and vanilla pod and seeds with a pinch of salt in a saucepan of boiling water for 20 minutes or until al dente.
Drain, discarding pod, and cool slightly. Combine with the creme anglaise and transfer to a 1.5L (6 cup) baking dish.
Chill for 30 minutes or until firm.
Meanwhile, place jelly and 2 tbs water in a saucepan over low heat and stir until melted.
Remove from heat and stir in berries, then set aside until ready to serve.
Sprinkle sugar over the pudding, then use a kitchen blowtorch to caramelise the sugar. (Alternatively, cook under a hot grill for 2-3 minutes until caramelised.)
Serve the pudding with the berry mixture drizzled over.
