Equipment

instant pot

Ingredients

½ cup white rice
1 teaspoon butter, room temperature
⅛ teaspoon salt
3 cups whole milk
½ cup raisins, golden
½ can sweetened condensed milk
½ to ¾ teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 teaspoon vanilla extract

Instructions

Place rice in a fine mesh strainer, and give a quick wash under running water to remove any dirt and let execess water drain.
Pro tip: Wash your rice to remove any dirt but don't rinse thoroughly! Rinsing flushes away excess starch that would absorb liquid and swell, compromising the texture of the finished dish.
Brush the bottom of the instant pot stainless steel insert with softened butter.
Tip: This forms a protective layer and helps prevent the milk from sticking to the bottom.
Add ½ cup water, rice and salt and stir to combine. Pour milk on top and the add the raisins. Do not stir after adding milk.
Close and lock lid (making sure that valve is set to seal), cook on manual for 5 minutes. When cooking time is done, let instant pot be in warm mode for 20 minutes or do a natural pressure release.
Open lid, and stir in condensed milk, cinnamon and vanilla extract, until fully combined. Enjoy warm, room temperature or cold!
Pro tip: This recipe is mildly sweet with ½ can of condensed milk. If you like it sweeter, then feel free to stir in some sugar or additional condensed milk.

Notes

Adjust the consistency. The pudding thickens as it cools and reaches the desired texture. Stir in more milk or water to make it thinner.
