Cooking with Nana Joe (TIMES: 11 am & 2:30 pm):
Recipe : Arroz con leche
- 4 cups of rice
- Cinnamon stick
- 1 can of sweetened condensed milk
- 1 can of evaporated milk
- 4 cups of whole milk
- 2tbs vanilla
- 1 cup Raisins
- Powder cinnamon
- Combine water, rice, and cinnamon sticks in a large saucepan over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, uncovered, and cook for 16–18 minutes.
- Drain any remaining liquid, remove the cinnamon sticks, and return the rice to the pan over medium-high heat. Add sweetened condensed milk, evaporated milk, and whole milk, and bring to a boil.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook for about 20 minutes, stirring constantly. The milk can easily burn, so it is important to stir constantly as it thickens.
- Divide rice among serving cups and sprinkle with cinnamon. Serve warm.
