Ingredients
  • 4 cups whole milk
  • 2 cups evaporated milk
  • 1 cup water
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • The peel of one lemon
  • 1 cup Arborio rice
  • 1 cup sugar
  • ¾ cup golden raisins
  • 1 teaspoon vanilla essence
  • 2 teaspoons powdered cinnamon
Instructions
  1. In a heavy saucepan put the whole milk with the cinnamon sticks and the rice, cook over low heat, uncovered, stirring frequently and taking care that the milk doesn´t boil over.
  2. When the rice is tender (about 25 minutes), add the evaporated milk, water, sugar and lemon peel. Continue cooking over low heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until it is slightly creamy and soupy (about 20 minutes). Add raisins and stir to combine. Don´t let it dry because the mixture will become thicker as it cools because the rice will absorb most of the liquid.
  3. Remove from the heat and fish out the lemon peel and the cinnamon sticks. Add vanilla essence.
  4. Pour the warm pudding in cups or glasses or in a nice container. Dust with powdered cinnamon and serve. Can be refrigerated and eaten cold.
