Instructions:
| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1. | Heat the Milk: Begin by heating the milk until it reaches scalding temperature. This step ensures that the milk is warm and ready to infuse the rice with its creamy goodness. |
| 2. | Prepare the Rice: Place the long grain rice in a beram or baking dish. Pour the hot milk over the rice, ensuring that it is evenly distributed. Sprinkle in the salt, stirring gently to incorporate the ingredients. |
| 3. | Bake the Biram: Preheat your oven to 400Β°F (200Β°C). Place the beram filled with rice and milk mixture into the oven and let it bake for approximately 30-40 minutes. Keep an eye on it as you want the milk to be mostly absorbed but not completely. |
| 4. | Add Butter: As the milk is nearing full absorption, create a small indentation in the center of the rice. Drop the butter into the indentation and allow it to melt slowly. Drizzle some of the melted butter over the top of the rice for added richness. |
| 5. | Final Bake: Return the beram to the oven and continue baking for an additional 20-30 minutes, or until the rice develops a golden brown crust on top. This final bake ensures that the flavors meld together beautifully while adding a delightful crunch to the dish. |
| 6. | Serve and Enjoy: Once baked to perfection, remove the Biram Ruz from the oven and allow it to cool slightly before serving. Spoon generous portions onto plates and savor the creamy, buttery goodness of this Egyptian delight. Enjoy it as a decadent dessert or a comforting treat any time of day! |
