Mexican Rice Pudding | Arroz on Leche

     Now that Thanksgiving is over, it's time for Christmas dinner. This recipe can be made any time of the year, but it's mainly made during the Holidays. It is a good dessert when its cold outside or you want want a light snack before bed time. This dish does contain milk and a lot of sugar, however you can substitute it according to your dietary needs.  The things you will need are...


  • 2-3 cups of rice 
  • 1 can of evaporated milk
  • 1 can of condensed milk
  • 1-2 sticks of cinnamon
  • 1/2 gallon of milk 
  • Powdered cinnamon (optional)
  • Sugar (for those with a sweet tooth)
  • Raisins (optional) 









1. Wash your 2-3 cups of rice.


2. Place rice with 1 large piece of cinnamon in a big pot. Add water about 1 inch above the rice. 


3. Let rice come to a boil. 


4. Once boiling, add 1/2 of the half gallon of milk.


5. Add the can of condensed milk.


6. Add the evaporated milk.


7. Put on medium heat and stir. You need to keep stirring non stop so the rice does not stick to the bottom and burn. Add raisins or sugar to your liking (optional)


8. In this step, you can add more milk or water to make it the consistency you wish. For a more soupy feel, add more milk. For a more pudding feel, add little to no milk. Remove the cinnamon stick and cook until rice is well cooked. 


9. Once ready serve with a sprinkle of cinnamon powder.


ENJOY!
