- Wash rice and cover with cold water. Bring to a boil. Pour off the water then add milk. Simmer gently until rice absorbs the milk then remove from heat. Add salt and sugar.
- Press into a wet pudding basin and leave for a few minutes. Turnout onto a lined baking sheet without breaking. Gently cover with a good coating of jam. Preheat oven to 170 degrees C.
- Beat the egg whites into a soft froth. Gradually beat in the caster sugar. Carefully spread this all over the jam, smoothing carefully. Bake in the oven until meringue becomes crisp and pale yellow.
- Beat the egg yolks. Pour in a cup of boiling milk. Add sugar and a grate of nutmeg. Simmer until slightly thick then serve over rice meringue.
