Wash and drain the rice, then grind it briefly so it stays coarse.
Grind the peanuts finely and place them in a pot with the rice.
Add the water and salt, then cook over low heat until the rice softens.
Add the sugar, cinnamon, and vanillin, then stir until the texture thickens.
Divide into bowls and serve warm or at room temperature.
💡 Tip: Keep the rice slightly coarse when grinding; the porridge should have texture rather than become a smooth paste.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm or at room temperature in small bowls, with extra cinnamon if desired.
