Description
Rommegrot is a traditional Norwegian porridge made with short-grain rice, milk, and cream. This comforting dish is perfect for breakfast or dessert, served warm with cinnamon and butter.
Ingredients
1 cup short-grain rice (risotto or pudding rice)
4 cups whole milk
1 cup heavy cream
1/4 teaspoon salt
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Optional Toppings:
Butter
Cinnamon
Sugar
Raisins
Instructions
In a heavy saucepan, combine rice and milk. Bring to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring to prevent sticking.
Reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for 25–30 minutes, stirring occasionally, until rice is tender and mixture thickens.
Stir in the heavy cream and salt. Cook uncovered for another 5–10 minutes until creamy.
Remove from heat and swirl in the butter until melted and incorporated.
Serve hot with your favorite toppings.
Notes
Add vanilla or cardamom for extra depth.
A spoonful of jam or toasted nuts adds modern flair.
Use evaporated milk for added richness.
