Rice casserole with raisins is a delicate and aromatic dish of Russian cuisine that warms the soul and fills the home with coziness. It is believed that casseroles based on porridge appeared as a way to use leftover boiled rice, turning it into a hearty and appetizing treat. In this recipe, the rice is soaked in milk, gaining softness and a creamy taste, while the raisins add a sweet touch, creating a pleasant contrast. Baked to a golden crust, the casserole becomes airy and slightly crispy on the outside but remains juicy inside. It is perfect for breakfast or a light dinner and can also be served as dessert with honey or sour cream. The simplicity of preparation makes it accessible to everyone, while its taste is unforgettable.
