[RECIPE IN SHOW NOTES] 

This is one that blasts Simon straight back to childhood (and he’s not afraid to admit he’d still eat it cold straight from the tin). Yes when it’s bad it can be very, very bad BUT this slow-cooker rice pud takes all the pain out of making it and ensures the whole business is not only guaranteed to be delicious, but it’s also extreeeemely simple.
