Instructions

1 Place the rice, cloves, cinnamon sticks, raisins and water in a medium-sized
pot. It might be necessary to break the cinnamon stick into pieces to ensure the
flavor really comes out. (Optional: add lemon rind or orange peel here.)
2 Cook for 15-20 minutes over low heat until the rice is cooked and all the water
has been absorbed.
3 Take out the cinnamon stick and the cloves (and lemon rind if using).
4 Add the evaporated milk and boil for 7 minutes, reduce heat until it’s low, stir
continuously.
5 Add the sugar and mix well.
6 Pour in the condensed milk and stir well until it’s evenly distributed
throughout the pudding.
7 Serve warm or cold in individual cups or bowls, topping it off with a generous
dusting of powdered cinnamon (and grated coconut, if using). Enjoy!
