Arroz con Leche-Argentina's Ultimate Comfort Food

This recipe is a very basic and easy one-perfect for when you're under the weather and don't want to put in too much effort! Can easily be doubled, this recipe serves 4.

3 cups milk

1 teaspoon butter

1 cup rice

1 egg yolk, lightly beaten

1/2 cup heavy cream

1/4 cup sugar

1/4 teaspoon cinnamon

1/4 raisins, re-hydrated in water

Bring milk to a boil and add rice and butter.  Stir to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.  Lower the heat to low and let simmer for 20 minutes or so, until the rice has absorbed almost all of the liquid and is cooked through.  The rice should be well-cooked, not al dente.  Stir in the egg yolk, sugar, and heavy cream and stir well to combine.  Stir in the raisins and cinnamon.
