Rice pudding

Pour the milk into a saucepan with a broken cinnamon stick and a little grated lemon and orange peel. Bring to a boil.

When it starts to boil, add the rice and simmer until the milk reduces and the rice is done.

At the same time, put the pitted dates in a glass with water and put it in the microwave until it is very hot. Remove the dates (do not throw away the water) and mash with some of the water until a paste is formed.

When the rice is ready, add the date paste and boil again until ready.

Place in the container in which it will be served, decorate with cinnamon, lemon peel and orange peel.

Let stand in the refrigerator for at least one hour.
