Notes

If you don't have cooking chocolate, mix 2 heaped teaspoons of hot chocolate powder with 2 cups of milk, or use ready made chocolate milk.

If using the microwave for step 2, heat chocolate milk on high to boiling point, and then cook for 3 minutes on low. Let milk stand for 2 minutes. Use a container hihg enough. For step 4, microwave on low for 2-3 minutes, stirring every 30 seconds or so, and let the custard stand for about 2 minutes. Times may vary depending on the microwave.

North American cuisine

This recipe is a good way to use plain boiled or steamed rice left over from other dishes. Alternatively, 1/2 cup rice should yield 1 cup cooked rice.
