- 1 cup (2.5 dl) round/short-grain rice, for example sushi or Arborio rice
- 2 cups (5 dl) water
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 2 - 3 cups (5 - 7.5 dl) milk (as needed)
- 2 tbsp sugar (to taste)
- 2 tbsp butter (optional)
Bring rice, water and salt to a boil, then simmer until most of the water has been absorbed. Add milk, sugar and butter, then heat while stirring until it comes to a boil (or close to it). Remove from heat and let it swell under lid for at least 3-4 hours or overnight. (You can also let it simmer until rice is soft for about 45 minutes, but it burns very easily.) Stir and add more milk if needed, then reheat and serve with ground cinnamon, sugar and milk.
