Arroz con Leche
Ingredients:
1½ cups uncooked rice
4-8 cups milk
pinch of salt
1 Tbl butter
3-4 cinnamon sticks, chopped very coarsely
vanilla
1 can condensed milk
powdered cinnamon
raisins (optional)
Preparation:
Put the rice, butter, salt, and cinnamon sticks in a pan over medium heat. Add milk to cover, plus about 2 inches more. Add raisins too, if using.
Stir frequently, because if it starts to stick and burn, it’s all ruined.
Continue to add milk as needed, and continue to stir, until the rice is soft and has expanded.
Add the condensed milk and vanilla, then taste to see if it needs more sugar.
Serve, sprinkling each serving with powdered cinnamon.
