Arroz con Dulce

When I get the cravings, I'm off to the supermarket.  After that, I'm in the kitchen, working it out.  Today, I'm sharing Arroz con Dulce.  (Rice Pudding)

Puerto Rican Arroz con Dulce

Ingredients:
2 cups Rice
2 cups Water

10 Cloves
2 Cinnamon Sticks

1 can Condensed Milk
1 can Evaporated Milk
1 can Coconut Milk
1 tsp Ginger
2 tsp Vanilla Extract
Half cup Raisins

Dash Cinnamon


*Please Note* Always cook uncovered

In deep pot, add water and rice.  Bring to boil.

• Lower the heat to simmer, add the cloves and cinnamon stick. Stir.
• Let this cook on low until the water has evaporated.
• Add the remaining ingredients (except the pinch of cinnamon), stir gently, and again let simmer on low until all liquid has evaporated.  [This will take some time, 20 mins to half hour, as the rice will rise to meet the height of the liquid.]
• Once thickened, transfer into a serving dish, garnish with the pinch of cinnamon and refrigerate.
