Bring 360ml (1½ cups) water to a boil in a saucepan\n2.  Stir rice into boiling water\n3.  Add lavender\n4.  Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 20 minutes\n\n### Add Milk\n\nAdd to rice:\n\n-   360ml (1½ cups) milk\n-   Sugar\n-   Salt\n-   Cinnamon sticks\n\nCook over medium heat until thick and creamy, 15 to 20 minutes.\n\n### Add Egg\n\nAdd to pudding:\n\n-   Ground cardamon seeds\n-   120ml (½ cup) milk\n-   Beaten egg\n-   Raisins\n\nCook 2 minutes more, stirring constantly.\n\n### Finish\n\n1.  Remove from heat and stir in vanilla and/or bourbon.\n\n## Serve\n\n-   Serve warm; if reheated, stir in enough milk to correct consistency.\n-   Optionally, add grated nutmeg, cinnamon, or other warm spice.\n\n## Notes\n\n-   **Dietary label corrected (2026-07-30):** this was themed *Vegan* while the\n    ingredient list calls for \"1 egg, beaten\", stirred into the pudding in the\n    Add Egg step — so a filter on `--theme vegan` returned an egg-set pudding.\n    The Change Log's vegan intent is real (butter dropped, oat milk in place of\n    milk), but the egg was never addressed. Corrected the label to *Vegetarian*\n    rather than altering the dish; the egg does real work here and removing it is\n    a recipe decision, not a transcription fix.\n","draft":false,"servings":"4","prep_time":"5 minutes","cook_time":"40 minutes","total_time":"45 minutes","source_name":"Allrecipes","source_url":"http://allrecipes.com/recipe/24059/creamy-rice-pudding/","created_at":"2017-03-13T21:43:19Z","updated_at":"2026-07-30T22:28:42.793382Z","categories":["dessert"],"tags":["Cinnamon","Raisins","Rice"],"methods":["Stove-Top"],"themes":["Vegetarian"],"ingredients":[{"section":"","items":["-   360ml (1½ cups) water","-   180ml (¾ cup) uncooked short-grain white rice","-   ¼ teaspoon dried lavender (optional)","-   3 cinnamon sticks","-   480ml (2 cups) oat milk, divided (preferably whole)","-   80ml (⅓ cup) white sugar","-   ¼ teaspoon salt","-   1 egg, beaten","-   160ml (⅔ cup) golden raisins","-   4 cardamon pods; seeds ground","-   2 teaspoon vanilla extract (and/or bourbon)"],"parsed":[{"raw":"-   360ml (1½ cups) water","qty":360,"unit":"ml","item":"water"},{"raw":"-   180ml (¾ cup) uncooked short-grain white rice","qty":180,"unit":"ml","item":"uncooked short-grain white rice"},{"raw":"-   ¼ teaspoon dried lavender (optional)","qty":0.25,"unit":"tsp","item":"dried lavender"},{"raw":"-   3 cinnamon sticks","qty":3,"item":"cinnamon sticks"},{"raw":"-   480ml (2 cups) oat milk, divided (preferably whole)","qty":480,"unit":"ml","item":"oat milk","prep":"divided"},{"raw":"-   80ml (⅓ cup) white sugar","qty":80,"unit":"ml","item":"white sugar"},{"raw":"-   ¼ teaspoon salt","qty":0.25,"unit":"tsp","item":"salt"},{"raw":"-   1 egg, beaten","qty":1,"item":"egg","prep":"beaten"},{"raw":"-   160ml (⅔ cup) golden raisins","qty":160,"unit":"ml","item":"golden raisins"},{"raw":"-   4 cardamon pods; seeds ground","qty":4,"item":"cardamon pods; seeds ground"},{"raw":"-   2 teaspoon vanilla extract (and/or bourbon)","qty":2,"unit":"tsp","item":"vanilla extract"}]}],"servings_int":4,"qc":{"status":"passed","last_checked_at":"2026-07-30T22:32:00.789672Z","checked_by":"claude-code","standard_version":"2026-07-29","findings_count":0,"stale":false}}
