Portuguese rice pudding - but it’s a french recipe from 1864!

Traditional Portuguese Rice Pudding
Ingredients:
1 cup of rice
1 litre of milk
250g of sugar
4 egg yolks
1 or 2 pieces of lemon peel
1 stick of cinnamon
powdered cinnamon for decorating
Instructions:
Bring the milk to a simmer with the cinnamon stick and the lemon peel;
Once it starts simmering, add the rice and let it cook;
While the rice cooks, mix the egg yolks and sugar;
When the rice is done, turn off the heat. Do not drain it. Add a couple of spoons full of the hot milk to the egg and sugar mix to gently bring up its temperature, and then add it to the rice.
Turn the heat back on and cook until the custard thickens a bit.
Pour it into whatever you want to serve it in and decorate with powdered cinnamon. You don't have to make any drawings or patterns with the cinnamon but it's more fun if you do!
Enjoy!

Much more fancy than rice pudding I've had in the UK. I might try a recipe in the future.

They are both delicious and fun but you'll need a lot more time for the French one.
