Ingredients
- 150 grams short-grain rice
- 1 liter skim milk
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 30 grams sugar
- 0.25 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 50 grams fresh fruit (optional, for topping)
Directions
Step 1
Rinse the short-grain rice under cold water to remove excess starch. Drain well.
Step 2
In a large saucepan, combine skim milk, rinsed rice, sugar, and salt. Stir well to combine.
Step 3
Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle simmer, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
Step 4
Once the milk begins to simmer, reduce the heat to low and let it cook gently for about 20-25 minutes. Continue to stir frequently.
Step 5
After 20 minutes, check the consistency. The mixture should be thick and creamy, and the rice should be tender.
Step 6
Stir in the vanilla extract and ground cinnamon, ensuring they are well mixed.
Step 7
Remove the saucepan from heat and allow the milchreis to rest for a few minutes. This will help it thicken further.
Step 8
Serve warm, topped with fresh fruit if desired, or let it cool and refrigerate for a chilled version. Enjoy your low-fat milchreis!
