Leche Frita (Spain)
Leche frita is a delicious Spanish dessert consisting of a crispy fried egg and a sweet, hard rice pudding covered in a crust of flour. It is made with flour, cornstarch, sugar, milk, eggs, butter and olive oil. The whole mixture is flavored with cinnamon.
Leche frita, meaning fried milk, can be served cold, at room temperature, or ideally warm with a scoop of ice cream on the side. Although the origins of this ancient dessert are uncertain, early versions are believed to have been made by nuns who sold them to help protect their convent.
It is a popular street food that can also be found in patisseries and restaurants today.
