Arroz doce (receita do Jamie)

Conheço quem tenha comprado um bom dicionário inglês-português só para traduzir as receitas do Jamie Oliver, visto nem todos os livros do cozinheiro estarem editados em Portugal. Aqui fica uma receita de arroz-doce com um up grade de doce de morango e suspiros.

Creamy Rice Pudding with the Quickest Strawberry Jam For the jam: 2 pounds strawberries, hulled, washed and drained 1/2 cup sugar For the rice pudding: 5 cups organic whole milk 7 ounces medium-grain rice (198,45 gr) 2 tablespoons vanilla sugar 2 ounces store-bought meringues, crumbled Optional: a few wild strawberries, to serve Place the strawberries in a wide, stainless steel pan and sprinkle the sugar over the top. Scrunch the strawberries up with your hands, really pushing them between your fingers to pulp them up - the mixture will start to look like jam at this point. You want all the sugar to dissolve in the strawberry juice before you put the pan on the heat and bring it to the boil. Simmer for 20 to 30 minutes on a medium heat, and every 5 minutes or so come back to your jam to skim off the foam. Don't worry if it's still a bit liquid - it needs to be so you can swirl it into your rice pudding. Remove the pan from the heat and put aside. There you have it - beautiful, quintessential strawberry jam! Meanwhile, place the milk, rice and vanilla sugar in a deep saucepan. Bring to a medium simmer and put on the lid. Cook for half an hour, stirring occasionally, until the rice pudding is thick, creamy, oozy and moist. If it ends up being a bit too thick, you can thin it down by adding a little more milk. To serve, divide the rice pudding between your bowls. Spoon over a big dollop of your beautiful strawberry jam, then slowly swirl it in so it marbles and ripples through the rice pudding. Sprinkle over the meringue pieces and scatter with a few wild strawberries, if you like. (video do doce de morango aqui)
