Step-by-Step Instructions
- Preheat oven to 350°F (175°C) and grease an 8x8-inch baking dish.
- In a medium saucepan, bring 1½ cups of water to a boil. Add 1 cup of short-grain rice, cover, and simmer for 10-12 minutes until tender.
- In a large bowl, whisk together 1 cup of whole milk, 1 can of sweetened condensed milk, 1 teaspoon of vanilla extract, ½ teaspoon of cinnamon, ¼ teaspoon of nutmeg, and a pinch of salt until smooth. Beat 2 eggs in a separate bowl, then whisk into the milk mixture.
- Spread the cooked rice in the greased baking dish. If desired, add dried fruits. Pour the custard mixture over the rice.
- Place the baking dish inside a larger roasting pan and fill the outer pan with hot water halfway up the sides of the baking dish.
- Bake for 45-55 minutes until the pudding is set but jiggles in the center. Stir gently halfway through.
- Once baked, cool for 10-15 minutes at room temperature before serving.
