Ingredients

The following ingredients have 8 Servings
  • 4 cups water
  • 2 cinnamon sticks
  • 3 to 5 whole cloves
  • ¼ teaspoon salt
  • ¾ cup long-grain rice
  • ¾ cup evaporated milk
  • ½ cup sweetened condensed milk
  • 1 cup dark raisins
  • 1 tablespoon ground cinnamon (for sprinkling when serving)

Instruction

  • Over high heat, bring the water to a boil with the cinnamon sticks, cloves, and salt.
  • Remove from the heat and cover. Steep for about 45 minutes to 1 hour.
  • Remove cinnamon sticks and cloves and discard. Add rice and over medium heat boil for 20 minutes.
  • Add the evaporated milk, condensed milk, and raisins and continue to cook over low heat for about 5 minutes. Stir gently but be careful not to stir too much so rice doesn’t get mushy.
  • Ladle into bowls and sprinkle with cinnamon.
