Last Friday I experimented with rice…and the result, oh the result was soft and sweet and addictive!

This rice cake has no butter, nor oil or flour so perfect if your are trying to control/lose weight but still don’t wanna totally give up on something sweet!

Ingredients
* 100 g rice
* 500 ml milk
* 60 g sugar
* 2 eggs
* 25 g butter (for greasing the pan)

Step One - Make the Batter

Take 500 ml milk, bring it to a boil, drop in the rice. Cook till rice is soft and creamy
Meanwhile separate egg yolks from egg whites
Whip the egg whites
When the rice is ready, turn off the heat and add eggs, sugar and vanilla extract
Now slowly incorporate the whipped egg whites.

Step Two - Bake It!

Grease a baking pan and cook at 180 C for about 40 min
Let it cool down, then cut into slices.
You can eat it for breakfast with some milk, or (if you can), add a scoop of whip cream or ice cream and enjoy your cake at home or with friends.
