Gather all ingredients.
In a saucepan, bring water to a boil over medium heat; stir in rice. Lower the heat, cover, and simmer until the rice is tender and the liquid has been absorbed, approximately 20 minutes.
Combine cooked rice, 1.5 cups milk, sugar, and salt in a clean saucepan. Cook over medium heat, frequently stirring, until it thickens and becomes creamy, about 15 minutes.
Stir in remaining 0.5 cup milk, beaten egg, and raisins; cook for an additional 2 minutes while continuously stirring.
Remove from heat and mix in butter and vanilla extract until well combined.
Serve warm, dusted with cinnamon or nutmeg.
