Ingredients:

1/2 cup white rice
120g
2 cups milk (1% fat)
480g
1 cup light sour cream
230g
1/2 cup sugar
100g

Instructions:

1. Prepare Ingredients:
- Start by measuring out all the ingredients so they are ready to use.
2. Cook the Rice:
- In a medium saucepan, combine the white rice and milk.
- Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring to a gentle simmer. Stir occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
3. Simmer Until Tender:
- Allow the rice to simmer in the milk for about 20-25 minutes or until the rice is tender and has absorbed most of the milk. Stir frequently to ensure even cooking and to avoid the mixture sticking to the pot.
4. Incorporate Sugar:
- Once the rice has cooked, add the sugar to the saucepan.
- Stir the mixture continuously until the sugar is completely dissolved and well incorporated.
5. Add Sour Cream:
- Reduce the heat to low and gently fold in the light sour cream. Mix until the sour cream is fully integrated and the risotto is creamy.
- Continue to cook on low heat, stirring occasionally, for another 5 minutes to ensure all flavors meld together.
6. Serve:
- Once done, remove the saucepan from heat.
- You can serve the Sweet Orange Risotto warm or let it cool to room temperature, depending on your preference.

Tips:

- Use medium-grain white rice for a creamier texture.

- Heat the milk before adding it to the rice to improve the cooking consistency.

- Stir the risotto frequently to prevent it from sticking to the pan and to achieve a smooth texture.

- Consider adding a splash of orange zest or a few drops of orange extract to enhance the orange flavor.

- Serve immediately for the best texture, but you can also allow it to cool and set for a different experience.

- Garnish with a twist of orange peel or a sprinkle of cinnamon for extra flavor and visual appeal.
