Put two tea-cups of rice into a quart of boiling water--add a couple of
tea-spoonsful of salt, and let the rice boil till soft. Then take it
from the fire, stir in a quart of cold milk, and half a pound of
raisins; or omit the raisins, and substitute any other fruit that you
may like. Beat a couple of eggs, and put in, together with half of a
grated nutmeg. Set the whole on the fire, and let it boil till the fruit
is soft. Serve it up with butter and sugar.
