Ingredients

Method

Directions

1

Prepare the Rice

In a medium saucepan, combine the Arborio rice and salt with 1 cup of milk. Bring to a gentle simmer over medium heat, stirring occasionally.

2

Cook the Rice

Once simmering, reduce the heat to low and add the remaining 3 cups of milk gradually. Stir continuously, allowing the rice to absorb the milk until it becomes creamy and the rice is tender, about 20-25 minutes.

3

Add Sweetness and Flavor

Once the rice is cooked, stir in the sugar and vanilla extract. Mix well until the sugar is dissolved.

4

Chill the Mixture

Remove the saucepan from heat and let the Sweet Rice cool to room temperature. Once cooled, transfer to a serving dish or individual bowls, cover, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour until chilled.

5

Serve

Before serving, sprinkle a generous amount of ground cinnamon on top of the chilled Sweet Rice for an added warm spice.
