I love desserts and am often found scrutinishing the dessert menu at a restaurant before anything else. That's why I wanted to share creamy custards from my childhood. It would be hard to pick a favourite

Ingredients

4 Tbsp	Sugar
4 Tbsp	Arborio rice
4 Tbsp	Oranges, grated rind
1 tsp	Lemon, finely grated rind
3 cups	Milk
1 cup	Cream
2	Eggs, lightly whisked
2 Tbsp	Almond flakes, lightly toasted

Directions

Preheat oven to 160 degC. Mix rice, sugar, orange and lemon rind together.
Divide mixture among five 1 cup-capacity greased ramekins.
Combine milk, cream and eggs in a jug and pour evenly over the rice mixture in each of the ramekins.
Bake for 1½ hours until thick and creamy.
Serve topped with flaked almonds, and cream if desired.
