If you want to make it with the best rice, make it with white basmati rice - it's absolutely wonderful! The texture of basmati holds up - gets creamy without getting mushy! And I like to use half and half - It adds a richer flavor than regular milk. I've never tried it with condensed or evaporated milk & the one time I did it with coconut milk, I did a mix of that and the half & half. (for a consistency thing more than anything else)
Instant white rice and heavy cream...with Craisins, not raisins.
Don't forget the cinnamon.
short grain white rice
you can use coconut milk which is a variation of some indian dessert recipes
i , hoewver,have had no expereince using the evap or condensed milk in a rice pudding recipe...
you can make it chocolate flavored by adding cocoa powder
or cinnamon and nutmeg
or raisins
or dates
or dried cranberries for variations
My mom uses regular long cooking white rice. She also uses whole milk and raisins.
