T Preheat the oven to 140xC.
T Measure out the pudding rice, sugar, butter and sultanas.
T Measure out 600ml of milk and pour into a medium-sized saucepan. Add the vanilla pod or essence to the milk, remembering to cut through the pod and scrape out the pulp inside to release the flavour.

To serve: Rice pudding is delicious served with a puree of fruit on top.
