Recipe instructions

Step 1

Step 1
How to make rice porridge like in kindergarten in a saucepan? Prepare all the necessary ingredients. Take round rice — it cooks well and the porridge turns out more homogeneous.

Step 2

Step 2
Rinse the rice several times in cold water to remove excess starch. Usually it is enough to rinse it 3-4 times. Drain all excess water from it.

Pour water into a saucepan, add sugar and a pinch of salt and put on fire. Bring to a boil. Sugar and salt should dissolve in water.

Step 5

Step 5
Separately, bring the milk to a boil so that when added to the rice there is no temperature difference and the porridge continues to cook. Pour boiling milk into a saucepan with rice, stir, cover with a lid and leave to cook for 5-7 minutes over low heat. Periodically, the porridge must be stirred and ensure that it does not burn.

Step 6

Step 6
The rice will noticeably increase in volume and the porridge will become thicker. If you prefer thin porridge, you can adjust its consistency by adding milk or water. Keep in mind that after standing, the porridge will become even thicker. Remove the pan from the heat and leave to stand with the lid on for another 15 minutes.

Delicious rice porridge with milk just like in kindergarten is ready! Divide baby rice porridge into bowls and serve. You can add a little butter, jam, fresh fruit or berries to the porridge. Bon appetit!
