🧂 Ingredientes
- 150 g Short-grain rice (like Arborio or Egyptian rice)(Rinsing the rice is optional but can help prevent stickiness.)
- 1 cup Water(For cooking the rice initially.)
- 1 L Whole milk(Full-fat milk will yield the creamiest result.)
- 150 g Granulated sugar(Adjust to your sweetness preference. You can also use caster sugar.)
- 1 tbsp Rose water(Add at the end to preserve its delicate aroma. Use good quality rose water.)
- for topping Ground cinnamon(For dusting on top.)
- for topping Chopped nuts (pistachios, almonds, or walnuts)(Optional, but adds a nice crunch.)
👨🍳 Instrucciones

Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear (optional). In a medium saucepan, combine the rinsed rice with 1 cup of water. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, then reduce heat to low, cover, and simmer for about 15 minutes, or until the water is absorbed and the rice is tender.
⏱️ 15 minutes - 2
Pour the milk into the saucepan with the cooked rice. Add the sugar. Stir well to combine. Bring the mixture to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
⏱️ 5 minutes - 3
Reduce the heat to low and continue to simmer, uncovered, for about 25-30 minutes. Stir frequently, scraping the bottom and sides of the pot. The pudding will gradually thicken. You are looking for a consistency that coats the back of a spoon, but is not overly stiff, as it will thicken more as it cools.
⏱️ 25-30 minutes - 4
Remove the saucepan from the heat. Stir in the rose water. Taste and adjust sweetness if necessary. Ladle the rice pudding into individual serving bowls or a larger serving dish. Let it cool at room temperature for about 30 minutes, then cover and refrigerate for at least 1.5 hours, or until thoroughly chilled.
⏱️ 30 minutes cooling + 1.5 hours chilling - 5
Before serving, sprinkle generously with ground cinnamon and chopped nuts, if desired.
