Method

Preheat the oven to 150°C.

Rinse the rice in cold water to remove surface starch.

Bring to the boil then simmer gently for 25 minutes, stirring every five minutes.

Simmer for five more minutes while stirring continuously.

Remove from heat and pour into a shallow 2L ovenproof dish.

Bake for 30 minutes and rest for at least one hour.

Sprinkle with sifted icing sugar to serve warm.

For a cold serving, sprinkle with caster sugar and grill for 2-3 minutes.
