Arroz con Leche

Takes 45 minutes | Serves 6 |

Classic arroz con leche is a Mexican variation of rice pudding sweetened with condensed milk and topped with cinnamon.

1000 ml water

150 g long-grain white rice

2 pieces cinnamon sticks

200 ml sweetened condensed milk

180 ml evaporated milk

150 ml whole milk

some for topping ground cinnamon

Cook the Rice

Combine water, rice, and cinnamon sticks in a large saucepan over medium-high heat.
Bring to a boil, uncovered, and cook for 16–18 minutes.

Drain any remaining liquid, remove the cinnamon sticks, and return the rice to the pan over medium-high heat.
Add the sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whole milk, and bring to a boil.

Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring constantly. Be careful, as the milk can burn easily while thickening.

Divide the rice pudding among serving cups and sprinkle with ground cinnamon. Serve warm.
