Rice Pudding
(Arroz con Leche)

This Cuban dessert is one of the most popular. Made with rice and milk, usually sprinkled with cinnamon on top.
Serving Size: 4-6




Ingredients

4 cups whole milk
1 can condensed milk
1/2 cup uncooked white rice
1 tspn vanilla extract
1 cup sugar
1/4 tspn salt
1 1/2 cups water
1 cinnamon stick
1 lemon rind
1/4 cup raisins
cinnamon (grounded)


Directions
Pour the water in a pot and add the lemon rind and cinnamon stick and bring to a boil. Add the 1/2 cup of rice and reduce heat. Let the rice simmer until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the water. The rice should be soft. Remove the lemon rind and cinnamon stick. Add 4 cups of milk, 1 can condensed milk, raisins, salt, vanilla extract, and sugar to cooked rice. Simmer over medium low heat for about an hour, stirring frequently so that it doesn't stick to the bottom and burn. As it begins to thicken, stir more frequently so that it doesn't stick to the bottom and burn. Divide into individual serving containers and let cool. Refrigerate and serve sprinkled with cinnamon. Enjoy!
