Method
- Pour the milk into a saucepan and add the star anise and cinnamon. Split the vanilla pod, scrape the seeds into the pan, then add the pod too. Heat until just beginning to simmer, then remove from the heat. Set aside to infuse for 15 mins, stirring occasionally. Remove the vanilla pod.
- Put the infused milk and star anise in a slow cooker along with the pudding rice, sugar, butter and nutmeg. Stir well. Cook on high for 2-2½ hrs, stirring every hour, until the rice has absorbed most of the liquid and has a creamy texture.
- Remove the star anise and serve with an extra grating of nutmeg, if you like. Top with the dark chocolate curls.
Tip: No slow cooker? In step 2, simmer the ingredients, apart from the sugar, in a pan for 35 mins, then stir through the sugar and continue with step 3.
