Method

In small saucepan, combine rice and 1 1⁄2 cups water; bring to boil. Cook for 10 minutes; drain and refrigerate until cooled.

Meanwhile, in small skillet, melt 1 tbsp butter over medium heat; cook pear, stirring, until golden, about 4 minutes. Stir in maple syrup and salt; cook until pear is caramelized, about 1 minute. Set aside.

In large skillet, combine cooled rice, milk, remaining butter, honey, vanilla and nutmeg; cook over medium heat, stirring often, until rice is tender but firm, about 20 minutes. Stir in white chocolate, pear liqueur and lemon zest; cook, stirring, until chocolate is melted. Divide among 4 bowls; top with caramelized pear.

Garnish

Sprinkle with lemon zest and almonds. Drizzle with maple syrup.
