--------  ------------  --------------------------------
   9      c             Broth or water
   4      c             Dry rice
     1/4  c             Butter
     1/4  c             Flour
   1      c             Broth -- hot
   1      c             Milk
   3                    Egg yolks
   1                    Lemon -- juice only
     1/2  lb            Parmesan cheese -- grated

Put the broth or water into a large pot and bring it to a boil. Add
the rice, and stir with fork. Cover, and cook until the grains are
separate and soft, about 15 minutes.

In another pot, melt butter. Add flour and stir in well. Slowly add
hot broth and milk, and cook until sauce thickens, stirring
constantly to prevent lumping or burning. Remove from the heat. Beat
egg yolks with lemon juice and add to sauce, slowly, stirring
constantly. Return sauce to heat, continuing to stir until thickened.
Remove from heat, add butter and 1/2 the cheese.

Pack rice into a mold. Turn out on a platter. Pour sauce over rice.
Sprinkle remaining cheese over it. Serve hot.

Yield: 15 Servings
