Chai refers to tea cooked in warm milk and flavored with spices such as cardamom, ginger and cinnamon. These same flavors are a wonderful addition to old-fashioned rice pudding.

In a heavy saucepan, combine the milk, rice, sugar and salt. Bring to a boil. Reduce heat; simmer, uncovered, for 35-40 minutes or until slightly thickened, stirring frequently.
Remove from the heat; stir in the spices. Serve warm or chilled. Refrigerate leftovers.

My husband and I thoroughly enjoyed this delicious rice pudding! I did cut the recipe in half for the two of us, but we ate it up so quickly that the next time I make it, I'll make the whole batch!

This is a great rice pudding. My daughter found it a few years ago, and I have been making it ever since.
