Ingredients
- 2 cups white Rice
- 4 cups Water
- 2 cups whole milk
- 1 (14-oz can) sweetened condensed milk
- 1 (12-oz can) Evaporated Milk
- 1 Cinnamon stick
- 2 teaspoons vanilla
- 1 Tablespoon ground Cinnamon
- ¼ to ½ cup sugar (Adjust to preferred sweetness.)
- Optional for garnish: Raisins.
Instructions
- Place the rice in a fine mesh strainer and rinse it until the water runs clear.
- Place the rice, the cinnamon stick, and the water in a large saucepan. Bring the rice to a boil over medium - high heat and cook it for 30 - 35 minutes until the rice is soft. Stir occasionally to keep the rice from sticking to the pan. Be careful not to break the rice by stirring it too much.
- Once it's soft, add the three different types of milk, vanilla, and sugar. Cook for another 15 minutes. You should see the mixture thicken.
- Remove from heat and let it sit until it thickens even more.
- Let cool and then refrigerate.
- Serve at room temperature or cold.
- Sprinkle ground cinnamon on top, or you can add raisins as well.
Notes
Note: Once you have added all three types of milk to the mixture, the longer you leave it boiling the thicker it will become.
