Ingredients
2 cups water
1 cup rice
2 cups milk
2 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 package pudding mix
1/4 cup melted butter
a pinch salt
Method
Start by heating water in a medium saucepan and adding the rice. Bring it to a rolling boil, then reduce the heat to medium-low. Cover and let it simmer for about 20 to 25 minutes until the rice is tender and the water has evaporated.
Meanwhile, preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C) and grease an 8-inch square baking dish to prepare it for the mixture.
Once the rice is cooked, mix in the milk until well combined. Next, incorporate the beaten eggs, sugar, pudding mix, melted butter, vanilla extract, and a small pinch of salt. Stir everything together until smooth and creamy.
Transfer the rice mixture into the greased baking dish, then place it in the oven. Bake for approximately 1 hour, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
