Perfecting rice pudding
Dear Lindsey, Every time I try to make rice pudding it ends up solid and inedible. Sometimes the rice is gritty and not cooked. Is it because I am using an Aga ? Temperature, or do I need to cover it. ‘Maybe I should use less rice or a different kind than pudding rice from Sainsbury’s! Help me iron it out please? Patrick

Lactose free recipes that contain cream
Hello Lindsey,
I am lactose intolerant but can get lactose free cream. Unfortunately I cannot get lactose free double cream. What can I substitute for double cream in Delia’s recipes?
