Categories     Dessert

Time 35m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 cup of short grain rice (Arroz Bomba is what I use in Spain but Arborio also works well.)
1-2 wide slices of lemon rind
1 stick of cinnamon
1 teaspoon of ground cinnamon
1 pinch of salt
4 ¼ cups of whole milk ((1 liter) you can substitute non-dairy milks if desired )
Sugar to taste

Steps:

  • Rinse the rice under cold water and then put it in a saucepan over a medium heat, just barely covered with water (you could also cover it with milk for even creamier arroz con leche).
  • Add the cinnamon stick and lemon rind. Stir continually until all of the water is absorbed.
  • Add milk about ½ cup at a time, stirring each time until all is absorbed. Continue adding up to the whole liter of milk, stirring continuously.
  • When is seems creamy enough, taste to make sure the texture of the rice is correct. Some prefer it al dente and others like it very cooked (almost mushy).
  • When it is to your liking, turn off the heat and add a pinch of salt and dash of cinnamon. Then, add the sugar a few tablespoons at a time until it is sweet enough for you. Enjoy warm or let cool.
  • Sprinkle a bit more cinnamon on top to decorate!
