Ingredients
  

  • 14 ounces of sweetened condensed milk
  • 1/4 cup plump raisins
  • 1/2 cup uncooked long-grain rice
  • 2.5 cups water
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
  • 1 dash Asea salt
  • 1 tablespoon vanilla extract
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground nutmeg

Method
 

Step 1: Rinse the Rice
  1. Start by rinsing the rice thoroughly under cold water. This step removes excess starch and can help prevent the pudding from becoming too sticky.
Step 2: Combine Ingredients
  1. In a pot, combine the rinsed rice, water, and a dash of sea salt. Bring this to a gentle boil over medium heat.
Step 3: Cook Rice
  1. Once boiling, reduce heat to low and let it simmer. Cover the pot with a lid and allow the rice to cook for about 15-20 minutes, or until most of the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
Step 4: Add the Milk and Spices
  1. Stir in the sweetened condensed milk, vanilla extract, cinnamon, nutmeg, and the plump raisins. Mix everything well until fully combined.
Step 5: Simmer Again
  1. Allow the mixture to simmer on low for an additional 5-10 minutes. This helps the rice absorb the flavors while reaching the perfect creamy consistency.
Step 6: Cool and Serve
  1. Remove from the heat and let it cool a bit. The pudding will thicken as it stands. You can serve it warm or chilled, topped with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a few raisins for garnish.

Notes

  • Use Long-Grain Rice: Stick to long-grain rice for the best texture.
  • Avoid Over-Stirring: Stir gently to keep the grains intact.
  • Cool Completely: Allow it to sit for a few minutes after cooking; this will help thicken the pudding.
  • Enjoy Warm or Chilled: This pudding is delicious either way. Experiment and find your preference.
  • Customize Your Spices: Feel free to play around with spices. Some prefer adding a touch of cardamom or clove for added depth.
