Instructions:
-
Begin by preheating your oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit (175 degrees Celsius).
-
Break the eggs into a 2-quart buttered casserole dish, then lightly beat them with a fork until slightly combined.
-
Add in the milk, sugar, vanilla extract, and salt to the eggs. Ensure all ingredients are well combined by blending them thoroughly.
-
Stir in the cooked rice and light raisins into the egg mixture, ensuring they are evenly distributed throughout the custard.
-
Place the casserole dish in a larger pan filled with water. This water bath method helps in achieving a smooth and creamy texture for the custard.
-
Carefully transfer the pan to the preheated oven and bake the rice custard, uncovered, for about 1 hour and 15 minutes. Be sure to stir the custard once after 30 minutes of baking to prevent uneven cooking.
-
Once the custard is golden brown on top and set around the edges, remove it from the oven and let it cool slightly before serving.
