Arroz doce cremoso com leite condensado

Ingredientes

• 1 cup of white rice (long grain, unwashed)
• 2.5 cups of whole milk
• 1 14oz can of sweet condensed milk
• 5 whole cloves
• 1 vanilla bean (or a teaspoon of vanilla extract)
• 2 cinnamon sticks
• pinch of salt
• 1/4 cup of heavy cream
• powdered cinnamon for serving (optional)

Modo de preparo

1. 1

   Add the rice to a medium pan, cover with 2 cups of water, and bring to a boil over high heat.

2. 2

   When the water boils, reduce the heat to low, cover and let simmer until the rice is cooked. This should take about 10 minutes. If your rice overcooks, it's OK. This recipe is very forgiving.

3. 3

   When the rice is cooked, add the sweet condensed milk, the milk, the spices and a pinch of salt, and stir to combine.

4. 4

   Cook over medium heat until the mixture thickens, about 15-20 minutes, stirring occasionally.

5. 5

   Add the heavy cream and stir to combine, simmer another minute, and turn off the heat.

6. 6

   Fish for the whole spices, remove and discard them.

7. 7

   Serve warm with ground cinnamon, or as is.
