Posted by: admin / Category: Mexican Recipies
This year I want to make a dish or dessert that will make my family want more. Since I am hispanic I want to surprise my family and let them know that I CAN cook. A few ideas or recipies would help a bunch. Thanks
Arroz con leche. It is very easy and every one loves it.
Wash a cup of rice. Boil it with 3 cups of water and a whole cinnamon stick. Boil for about 15 minutes, covered. After 15 minutes, a lot of the water will have evaporated. Slowly add about 3/4 can of sweetened condensed milk (La Lechera is a good brand). Once you have added that, let it come back up to a simmer and put it on low. Start adding regular milk, keep checking every 10 minutes or so and keep adding the milk until the rice is soft. Once it is done, turn off the heat and add a little more milk to cool it down a little bit. Check for sweetness, if not sweet enough then add a little more sweetened condensed milk. Remember that the arroz con leche will keep absorbing the milk as long as it is hot, so you might have to add some more if it thickens too much.
