Instructions

  1. Pour the milk, rice, and lemon peel into a large pot over medium-high heat. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer for 20-30 minutes, stirring often, until the rice pudding thickens. Stir often and pay attention to avoid burning the bottom of the pot.
  2. Remove from heat and add the sugar. Stir well, and divide the mixture into bowls. Sprinkle with cinnamon and serve or refrigerate.

Notes

  •  
  • The nutritional analysis is only an estimate based on available ingredients and the recipe’s preparation. 
  •  
  • It is up to you on how much lemon peel to use. I love my rizogalo to be lemony and fragrant so I peel a whole small lemon. 
  • It is better to remove the lemon peel before dividing the cooked rizogalo to bowls, but not necessary. The lemon peels edible and you might like the extra lemony flavor.
  • Substitute the whole milk with skim milk or the plant milk of your choice.
  • Granola.
  • Chocolate shavings.
  • Apple crumble.
  • Lemon zest.
  • Your favorite jam.
