This is a recipe my grandmother taught me to use up leftover rice. It’s a bit different from the usual rice pudding, but it’s easy and very tasty.
This recipe calls for raisins, but you can omit them or substitute other dried fruits like cranberries if you prefer.
Please note that the prep time does not include the time needed to cook the rice. I usually use leftovers.
