Try searching, some people are so useless.

50g (2oz) Pudding Rice or Tapioca
15g (½oz) Butter
2 tbsp Sugar
¼ tsp Ground Cinnamon, Nutmeg or Mixed Spice

Pre-heat oven to 170°C: 325°F: Gas 3.
Place the milk, rice (or tapioca), butter and sugar into a greased 1.1 litre (2 pint) oven-proof dish.
Place into the oven.
Bake for 2-2½ hours.
Stir 2 or 3 times during the first hour of cooking.
Sprinkle with the chosen spice.
Continue cooking until a golden brown crust has formed.
Serve hot or cold, with a spoonful of jam or seasonal fruit.

Answer 2

This recipe was on the side of a Whitworth's Brand Ground Rice packet. I've hunted for ages to try and find the old recipe I used to have when I was small and this looks like it. I've not tried it yet (will probably do the microwave version (also on the packet) which I'm adding next). Should be very nice. My mum used to add a few drops of vanilla essence, a 'knob' (a bit cut off the corner of a slab...) of butter and an egg white (possibly the whole egg, - can't remember :). She also used to add a little nutmeg and a little cinnamon and mix them in before putting in the oven dish to bake.

1 7/8 ounces rice flour
2 5/8 cups 1% low-fat milk (my mum would have used whole milk)
1 ounce caster sugar

Preheat oven to 200 Centigrade / 400 Fahrenheit / Gas Mark 6 and grease a bake-proof dish.
Heat milk in a saucepan and sprinkle on the Ground Rice.
Stirring continuously, heat on a low heat bring to a boil until it thickens. Simmer for a further 2-3 minutes.
Stir in the sugar. (My mum would have probably used a bit more than 1 ounce - sweet tooth!).
Pour into greased bake-proof dish.
Bake for 25-30 minutes until lightly brown.
