Belizean Baked Rice Pudding - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    1 cup uncooked rice
    1/2 cup sugar
    1/2 cup butter
    14 1/2 ounces evaporated milk
    6 ounces sweetened condensed milk
    3 eggs, whipped until fluffy
    1/2 teaspoon lemon extract or 1 teaspoon lemon zest
    1/2 nutmeg, grated
    1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
    2 ounces raisins (optional)
Preparation
    Cook rice in plain water until rice is very soft (do not add oil or salt to water when cooking).
    Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
    Drain hot rice and place in bowl. While stirring, add all other ingredients. Continue stirring until butter is melted and all ingredients are incorporated.
    Pour into pan that you have greased or sprayed with cooking spray. Rice mixture should be around 2 inches deep in the pan.
    Bake approximately 60 minutes, or until firm and knife inserted in center comes out clean. (NOTE: the recipe did not include cooking time. I based this time on reviews by people who tried it).
