I’m sure my family have clocked their one-hundredth round on this recipe – we love it and make it all the time. Although using the condensed milk might be cheating a little bit, it makes a creamy, luscious and very indulgent dessert – thank you Rosalia! (In case you’re wondering, Rosalia says this definitely can’t be made with skim milk – ‘You use full-cream then go for a run!’)
Curious as to how other cultures prepare this dish? Cuban rice pudding is delicious with stewed fruit or on its own.

Hot Tips
Toasting spices
Toasting whole spices in a dry pan can help to bring out the essential oils and the flavour in the spice, however be careful to taste as you add the spice to your dish as the flavour will have changed and you may need less. Toasting pre-ground spices is a little trickier and it can ruin the flavour of the spice altogether.
