In Puerto Rico this recipe is simply a rice soup made with milk. Usually made for babies, children, or when someone has a bad stomach. It is a comfort food. In other Latin American countries 'Arroz con leche' might be a dessert made with sugar and cinnamon. Our rice dessert is called Arroz con dulce made with coconut. Ingredients:
1 cup of fresh milk |
1 1/2 cups water |
1/2 cup rice |
1/2 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon butter |
3 teaspoons sugar (optional) |
Directions:
1. Begin to boil the water, add the rice already wash and drained.
2. Cook for 15 minutes without stirring it. Add the salt, milk and butter and leave it to boil.
3. Lower the heat to low and simmer for 15 minutes more.
4. Take it off the burner. If you prefer it more milky, add more milk.
