Ingredients
  

  • 1 cup plain rice
  • 1 cup raisins
  • 1 cinnamon stick for a touch of spiciness
  • 1 tsp vanilla extract
  • ½ tsp nutmeg
  • 4 cups water
  • ½ cup condensed milk for sweetness

  • Measuring Cups and Spoons to measure the ingredients accurately.

Method
 

  1. Wash 1 cup of plain rice until the water runs clear to remove excess starch.

  3. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking and burning.

  6. Cook for an additional 4-8 minutes until the pudding reaches your desired consistency.
  7. Sweeten the pudding to taste with condensed milk, and enjoy the beautiful taste of this satisfying rice pudding.
