Steps to make Turkish rice pudding:
  1. In a big pot, bring water to boil and add rice and a pinch of salt. Cook until nearly all the water is absorbed, 5-10 minutes.
  2. Add the milk, and bring to a light simmer. Constantly mixing, add the cornflour slurry slowly. Lightly simmer for 20 minutes whilst stirring so the mixture doesn’t burn on the bottom.
  3. Add the sugar and vanilla and lightly simmer pudding for a further 2 minutes while the oven heats up and the sugar dissolves. Preheat on the broiler to high heat. Feel free to add more sugar if it’s not sweet enough.
  4. Take pudding off the heat. Remove 3tbsp of the pudding liquid and slowly mix with the egg and set aside. Distribute the pudding evenly into glass ovenproof Tupperware or small ceramic baking dishes.
  5. With a spoon, float a small amount onto the surface of each pudding and use the back of the spoon to spread it around the surface without mixing into the pudding. This layer of egg will cook quickly under the grill and become nice and charred.
  6. Put the puddings under the broiler for 5-10 minutes, or until the top is is nice and charred. Chill pudding and eat once cold!

I used to gobble one bowl when it was still hot, but I've always loved it more when chilled. Although this is the easy way, I came accross an even easier way of making rice pudding on my lovely friend Mely's blog. In fact, this Turkish rice pudding can be also made without an oven at all. The main mixture is cooked on a stovetop, while an oven is only used for slightly burning the surface (somewhat similar to Crème brûlée) and creating a magical caramelized taste. We call it sutlac in Turkish and there are two main versions of sweet rice pudding in Turkish cuisine; Oven Baked Rice Pudding and stove cooked rice pudding.
