This is a traditional dessert for parties and special occasions, says Olga Fusté. In tropical climates, this dish is frequently made with coconut milk. Ingredients:
2 cups water |
1 tablespoon butter |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1 (2-inch) cinnamon stick |
1 cup uncooked arborio or other short-grain rice |
2 1/2 cups fat-free milk |
1/3 cup sugar |
2 teaspoons grated lime rind |
1/2 cup golden raisins |
1 teaspoon vanilla extract |
Directions:
1. Combine first 4 ingredients in a large saucepan; bring to a boil. Stir in rice. Reduce heat to medium, and cook 10 minutes or until liquid is almost absorbed, stirring occasionally. Discard cinnamon stick. Stir in fat-free milk, sugar, and rind; bring to a boil over medium heat, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook 25 minutes or until mixture thickens and becomes creamy, stirring frequently. Remove from heat. Stir in golden raisins and vanilla. |
