Marhaba! Today I want to share with you a recipe for one of my favorite desserts, Rice Pudding, or as the Lebanese call it Riz bi-Halib which translates to Rice with Milk (\u0631\u0632 \u0628\u062d\u0644\u064a\u0628<\/strong>). This dessert reminds me of my childhood since it was one of the main dishes that my mother cooked and always had ready in the fridge for us hungry kids craving something sweet. Rice pudding is generally a shared food among various Arab cuisines and even non-Arab cuisines such as the Indian, Pakistani, Persian, and Afghani cuisines. What makes this particular recipe \u2018Lebanese\u2019 is the taste of the orange blossom water (\u0645\u0627\u0621 \u0627\u0644\u0632\u0647\u0631<\/strong>) added to the ingredients as you will see below. It is fast and easy to prepare, and I hope you enjoy it. Make it with love and you will find everyone around you cannot get enough of it!<\/p>\n
