Nortena Rice Pudding Recipe - Arroz con Leche (video)

This is a very simple and quite delicious style of rice pudding. It's not the very creamy style you'd get by making a creme anglais sort of pudding base, and its name, Arroz con Leche, literally just means "rice with milk." We're spicing it up a little with some vanilla paste, cinnamon, and rum-soaked raisins. You don't have to make rice specifically for this dish, and leftover rice will work just fine for it. Ours was a little dried out (it had been in the freezer), but it came out delicious anyway. You can adjust how thick it is by adding more milk either while cooking or just prior to serving.

As far as flavouring components, the world is your oyster. We used some lovely rum-soaked raisins, vanilla paste, and cinnamon sticks, and they worked extremely well together. Other things you could flavour this with, depending on your tastes, would be ginger, cloves, cardamom, or really any warm spice that would be pretty easy to remove after it's cooked. The raisins could be replaced with dried apricots or nuts, as well.

Warm or cold, it's a tasty rice pudding. Really depends on the texture you're looking for.
