ARROZ CON LECHE
Ingredients:
1 Pk.
4 Cups of milk
2 cinnamon sticks broken in
pieces
1 Teaspoon vanilla extract
1 can evaporated milk
1 can condensed
milk
1 Cup of sugar
1 1/2 Cups of water
pinch of salt
Cinnamon powder
lime rind (may substitute lemon rind)
Preparation:
In a large pot wash
your rice and put to cook at medium to low heat with the water, the pinch
of salt and the lime rind.
Stir often, when rice is
soft, add the milk, cinnamon sticks and vanilla extract. Bring it to the
boiling point and then lower the heat to medium low. Let it cook for a while
then add the sugar and the condensed milk and continue stirring. Let it
simmer for a while uncovered, add the evaporated milk and let it continue
cooking for a while. It will thicken up.
Pour into a big bowl or
individual servings. Sprinkle cinnamon powder on top.
Serve warm or at room
temperature.
Note: This is my mother's
recipe. It is very rich and creamy.
Stir often so it will not stick to the bottom of the pot.
