   Tips for Achieving a Creamy Texture:

• Slow Cooking: Cook the rice over low heat to allow it to absorb the liquid gradually, releasing starch for creaminess without becoming mushy. Stir occasionally to prevent sticking. ​Voyo Eats

• Use Full-Fat Dairy: Opt for whole milk or a combination of milk and cream to achieve a rich, smooth texture. Low-fat options may result in a thinner consistency.​Voyo Eats

• Gradual Addition of Milk: Add milk in stages during cooking to ensure the rice absorbs it evenly, contributing to a creamy consistency.​

By following these methods and tips, you can prepare delicious rice pudding without the need for condensed milk or milk powder, achieving a satisfying and authentic dessert.​
