Cooking Time 30 minutes

Ingredients

4 cups milk
2 cups cream
1 vanilla pod, slit in half lengthways
1 star aniseed
3 cloves
1 cinnamon stick
50 g castor sugar
Zest of 1 orange
1 1/2 cups Basmati rice
1 x 397 g tin condensed milk
50 g butter
2/5 cup Amarula
Drunken pears
2 cups red wine
1 cup port wine
100 g castor sugar
1 cinnamon stick
3 pears, peeled and cut in half

Method

Place milk, cream, vanilla pod, star aniseed, cloves, cinnamon sticks, sugar and zest into a saucepan. Bring to boiling point. Add rice and reduce to a simmer.
Simmer for 30 minutes. Stir occasionally to prevent burning. When rice is cooked, add condensed milk and butter. Remove from heat. Serve warm with Amarula.

To make the pears: Place all ingredients in a saucepan, except pears. Stir over a low heat until sugar dissolves. Place pears into saucepan, bring to a boil and then reduce heat to a simmer.
Cook pears for about 10 minutes or until tender. Remove pears from pan and allow to cool. Spoon the rice pudding into glasses and top each portion with a pear half.
