How To Make arroz con leche

  • Step 2
    Remove lemon rind with a slotted spoon. Over low heat, add the evaporated and sweetened condensed milks. Stir constantly to combine well. Add vanilla and salt and continue to cook on low heat for 7-10 minutes, or until the pudding thickens to desired consistency.
  • Step 3
    Remove from heat and serve immediately. Or, store in the fridge in an airtight container
