Biram Ruz - cooking recipe

Ingredients

2 cups uncooked long grain rice
2 cups whole milk (skim milk for the diet conscience)
2 cups heavy cream (whole milk)
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon butter

Preparation

Heat the milk to scalding temperature.
Put the rice in the beram, pour the hot milk over it, stir in the salt and stick the beram in the oven at 400o for about 30- 40 minutes.
Just before all the milk is absorbed, make a little indentation in the center of the rice and drop the butter in it while the butter is melting take some of it and sprinkle on top of the rice.
Let it cook for 20-30 minutes more, until the rice is brown on top.
