10 0z.white rice/washed
Few cinnamon leaves
1/14 cups of water
1/4 cup coconut milk
1/4 tsp. grated nutmeg
1/8 tsp. vanilla flavouring
Salt
Condensed milk to sweeten or use honey
Method
Put a big enough pot pour 1/4 of water. Put pot on medium heat and add cinnamon leaves. Cover pot and boil cinnamon leaves for 5 minutes to infused flavours into the water
After 5 minutes, add the washed rice and the remaining 1 cup of water. Partially cover the pot and boil rice until partially cooked, stirring occasionally
When rice is partially cooked add the coconut milk, by this time the water should be reduced significantly. Lower heat to the lowest setting while rice is stimmering into coconut milk, stirring occasionally and pot should be partially covered.
When the porridge reaches to the consistency of not too runner and not too thick, turn off heat
