• 3 cups of water
• 1 ½ or 2 cups of evaporated milk

Put rice, water, cinnamon and salt in a covered pot to cook for approximately 20 minutes. When the rice is soft, add the sugar and milk. Next, let the mixture simmer over low heat for 30 minutes - be sure to check it so that it does not dry out.
