Prepare the Base

- Heat the mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently until it begins to simmer.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 15 minutes, stirring occasionally.
Add Eggs and Flavor
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then temper them by adding a small amount of the hot rice mixture to the eggs, whisking constantly.
- Slowly add the tempered egg mixture back into the saucepan, stirring continuously.
- Cook for an additional 5-10 minutes until the pudding thickens to your desired consistency.
Serve
