	Arroz Con Leche 03

		ARROZ CON LECHE: 1/2 cup rice (rinsed) 1 1/2 cups water 1 cinnamon stick rind of 1/2 lime (in large pieces) 1 teaspoon vanilla extract 1/4 teaspoon salt 4 cups milk 1 can condensed milk Cinnamon (powdered) Bring 1-1/2 cup of water to a boil with the lime rind and cinnamon stick. Add the 1/2 cup of rice and reduce heat, simmering the rice until the rice is cooked and has absorbed the water. Remove cinnamon stick and lime rind. Combine the 4 cups milk, 1 can condensed milk, 1/4 teaspoon salt and 1 teaspoon vanilla extract and add to the cooked rice. Simmer this mixture over medium heat, stirring frequently so that it doesn't stick to the bottom and burn (this takes around an hour or so, you must remain vigilant preparing this dessert as it will stick and burn easily, especially when it gets to it's thickened state). Divide into individual serving containers and let cool. Refrigerate and serve sprinkled with cinnamon.
