Serves: 4 servings
Ingredients
- 1 cup rice
- 4 cups milk
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1 tsp vanilla extract
- 1/4 tsp salt
- Fruit for rolls (e.g., strawberries, bananas)
- Spring roll wrappers
Instructions
- Prepare the rice pudding base by combining rice, milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt in a medium saucepan over medium heat.
- Stir the mixture continuously to prevent rice from sticking to the bottom of the pan, cooking for approximately 25-30 minutes until rice is tender and mixture becomes creamy and thick.
- Remove rice pudding from heat and let it cool to room temperature, stirring occasionally to prevent skin formation.
- While rice pudding cools, wash and slice chosen fruits into thin, even strips suitable for rolling.
- Lay out spring roll wrappers on a clean, flat surface. Place a small amount of cooled rice pudding in the center of each wrapper.
- Arrange fruit slices on top of the rice pudding in the wrapper.
- Carefully fold the bottom of the wrapper over the filling, then fold in the sides, and roll tightly to create a sealed fruit and rice pudding roll.
- Optional: Lightly brush the final edge with water to help seal the wrapper completely.
- If desired, you can pan-fry the rolls in a little butter for a crispy exterior, or serve them fresh and cool.
- Serve immediately, optionally dusting with powdered sugar or drizzling with additional fruit sauce.
Tips
- Rice Pudding Perfection: Constant stirring is key! This prevents the rice from sticking and ensures a creamy, even texture.
- Temperature Matters: Let the rice pudding cool completely before filling rolls to prevent soggy wrappers.
- Fruit Selection: Choose firm, ripe fruits that can be sliced thinly. Strawberries, bananas, and mangoes work wonderfully.
- Wrapper Technique: Don't overfill the spring roll wrappers - a little goes a long way for a perfect, tight roll.
- Sealing Secrets: Use a bit of water on the wrapper's edge to ensure a tight seal that prevents unraveling during cooking.
- Serving Flexibility: These rolls can be served cool for a refreshing dessert or lightly pan-fried for a crispy exterior.
- Make-Ahead Magic: Prepare the rice pudding in advance to save time during assembly.
