English
In a medium pot or caldero* over medium heat pour the coconut milk, and cook for 15 to 20 minutes; the milk will reduce to the point of separating into coconut oil and brownish crumbs. Scrape the bottom of the pot as soon as you see the milk has turned into oil, and continue to do so until the crumbs look light brown. These crumbs are called titoté.
Sprinkle the raisins and sauté in the coconut oil and crumbs for 2 minutes, until they plump up.
Add the rice, brown sugar, and salt. Stir for 2 minutes.
Add 4 cups of water and bring to a boil.
As soon as you see the rice on the surface, and most of the water hasevaporated, cover the pot; reduce to minimum heat and cook for 20 minutes. Serve.
