Rice Milanese

Pour one teacupful of milk into a saucepan on the fire, when it boils add one teacupful of well-washed rice, and a small quantity of finely-chopped onion. Cover the pan and boil slowly for about twenty minutes, by which time the rice should be soft and dry. Add a little saffron worked up with one ounce of butter, one ounce of grated cheese, and pepper and salt to taste. Stir well, and let the mixture remain on the side of the fire for ten minutes, turn it out onto a dish, and serve.
