This tender and fragrant rice pudding can be served hot for breakfast, like porridge. Chilled, it makes a delicious dessert! This pudding is made with white long-grain rice and two types of condensed milk, sweetened and unsweetened, resulting in a creamy and incredibly soft pudding. Golden raisins add a unique flavor and richness, while cinnamon imbues it with a magical aroma that perfectly complements the creamy taste of the pudding. Sprinkle the rice pudding with ground cinnamon and enjoy.

Preparation:

    Step 1
  • In a medium saucepan with a heavy bottom, combine the water, rice, and cinnamon stick and place over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, uncovered, and simmer until the rice is tender, about 18 minutes. Drain and remove the cinnamon stick.
  • Step 2
  • Return the rice to the pan. Add both types of condensed milk and whole milk. Continue heating over medium heat until the porridge comes to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, stirring constantly, until the pudding thickens, about 20 minutes.
