Arroz con leche, or rice pudding, is a popular Spanish desert made from rice and milk.

You will find different variations of this recipe based on preference and region but this is the most popular one.

NOTES:

*This recipe yields 1420g of pudding (counting the cinnamon sticks) which makes about 9-10 servings at 145g per serving. In other words, this is a family size portion that will last you for a few days.

** You can use any white rice at hand— I used long white rice.

*** At first, you should stir the milk+ rice mixture often. After the first 5 minutes, make you need to CONSTANTLY stir it to avoid the rice from sticking to the bottom and the milk from burning.
