Rice Kugel

2 cups rice
4 cups water
1 tsp. salt
6 large eggs
1/2 cup sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 cup golden raisins
Cinnamon, to sprinkle over kugel

Preheat oven to 350E Spray a large bak-
ing dish (9x13 inches) or a disposable
aluminum pan (not the largest size),
very well with nonstick cooking spray.
Set aside.
Place the rice in a medium saucepan
with a tight-fitting lid. Add the water
and bring to a boil over high heat,
uncovered. Immediately reduce heat to
medium, cover the pan and cook the
rice for about 15 minutes, until all the
liquid is absorbed.
Transfer the hot rice to a large bowl.
Stir it a few times to help the cooling
process. Add the eggs and remaining
ingredients, except cinnamon, quickly
and stir together (you must do this
quickly so that the hot rice does not
cook the eggs). Transfer the mixture to
the prepared pan and bake for 1 hour.
