Rice Turban

Prepare the rice as in the recipe, RICE, CAS SEROLE OF. Cut some apples into quarters, and stew them in syrup. Take particular care that the quarters are kept whole. Dish the rice; put a gallipot in the centre, to form a vacancy, into which you are afterwards to pour a vanilla cream. Dress the rice round the gallipot, and level it with the back of a spoon. Next place the apples round the rice, till you have reached the summit of it, and put the whole into the oven, but only leave it there time enough to dry up the syrup which sticks round the apples. Next decorate with crystallized fruits of different colours, such as greengages, apricots, and cherries; and when you are ready to send up, remove the gallipot and fill the vacancy with the vanilla cream.
