    Hi

    You could try looking at

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/food/recipes/

    That has some great ideas, and they are sometimes from Ready Steady Cook chefs, so they could be cheap and easy to make.

    Good luck,,, mmm rice puding,,,

    I make two of these for six of us:

    Put oven on 150C

    2 pints of full cream milk
    3-4 tablespoons sugar
    1-2 ounces butter
    8 tablespoons pudding rice

    Put all into a pyrex dish with a couple of inches to spare (in case it boils over). Stir and then grate some nutmeg on top.

    After about 45 mins, there should be a skin on top. Stir this in (if you don't have a shelf above, you don't have to take them out to do this) and cook another 45 mins or so until the skin has reformed.

    I find it's a bit of trial and error with this - the oven I have now has to be 140C, and if I use my Le Creuset pans it cooks quicker. If in doubt, after an hour or so, move a bit of skin and check if it's done. Enjoy!

    Full cream milk is the key (as above) but try to get organic milk for something even better.
    Nice to save.

    Here's my receipe :

    4 oz pudding rice
    2 pints skimmed (yes, skimmed!) milk
    2 tablespoons sugar plus more to top, plus nutmeg or cinnamon for dusting

    Pop all in saucepan & bring to boil, allow to simmer for about 30 mins then put in dish & dust with sugar/spices & into oven for about 30 mins whilst dinner is also cooking. I frquently add stewed fruit to the bottom of the dish or mix in ginger or sultanas for variation.

    I cover mine with foil, as I don't like skin.

    I always cook mine on low (gas 2) for 2-3 hours, stirring every hour, so the rice absorbs most of the milk/cream and isn't so runny, but it all depends how you like it I guess :)

    I'm not in the habit of buying butter being a marg person. Do you think ASDA Smartprice butter would do the job?

    I only buy Smartprice butter. Don't like margerine - looking at the list of ingredients puts me off. I use butter for everything - cakes, biscuits, bread, pastry ...
