Creamy Mexican Rice Pudding
Ingredients
  • 2 cups water
  • 1 cup uncooked long-grain white rice
  • 2 tablespoons unsalted butter
  • 3 cups whole milk, divided
  • 1/3 cup white sugar
  • 1 large egg
  • 1 tablespoon all-purpose flour
  • 1 1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
  • 2/3 cup heavy cream
  • 1/2 cup raisins
  • 1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
Instructions
1
Begin by heating water, rice, and butter in a large saucepan over high heat until they reach a rolling boil.
2
Once boiling, lower the heat to a medium-low setting and place a lid on top of the saucepan.
3
Allow the mixture to simmer gently for 20-25 minutes, or until the rice is tender and all the liquid has been absorbed.
4
Meanwhile, in a separate bowl, combine 2 cups of milk, sugar, an egg, flour, and vanilla extract.
5
Mix these ingredients together until they form a smooth paste.
6
Gradually pour the milk mixture over the cooked rice in the saucepan and stir until everything is fully incorporated.
7
Place the saucepan over low heat and let it simmer, stirring occasionally, for 15 minutes.
8
Next, stir in the remaining 1 cup of milk, a splash of cream, some raisins, and a pinch of cinnamon until everything is thoroughly combined.
9
Allow the mixture to cool for just a few minutes before serving.

Serve the dish warm or chilled, depending on your preference.
