Ingredientes
- 1 cup Rice
- 5 cups Water, divided
- 2 Cinnamon sticks
- 8 cloves of spices
- ½ tsp Salt
- 2 cups Evaporated milk
- ¾- 1 cup Sugar
- ¼ cup Raisins
- 1 ½ Tbsp Butter

Instrucciones
- To start, combine the uncooked rice, 3 cups of water, cloves, and cinnamon sticks in a large mixing bowl. Stir the ingredients well.
- Then, set them aside and leave the rice to soak for at least 1 hour.
- Next, transfer the soaked rice mixture to a large pot. Add the remaining water along with the salt. Stir the ingredients well to ensure their flavors blend.
- Bring the mixture to a boil. Once boiling, reduce the heat and allow to simmer over medium heat. Stir often to ensure the rice doesn't stick to the pot or each other.
- Leave the rice to cook until it becomes tender. This will take roughly 15-20 minutes.
- Next, add the sugar and stir it well.
- Then, stir in the evaporated milk. Keep the rice cooking over medium heat.
- Then, stir in the raisins. Lower the heat and leave the pudding to cook until it becomes creamy and thick. It should have a decadent pudding-like texture.
- When you are happy with the consistency of your Arroz Con Dulce, remove the whole cloves and cinnamon sticks.
- Stir in the butter and nutmeg. Cover the pot with plastic wrap and leave the pudding to cool completely at room temperature.
- Once it has cooled, stir it to incorporate the crusty part that has formed on the surface. It will add a nice texture to the pudding.
- Serve it with some extra nutmeg garnish.
