Method

Reserve 200 ml milk. Heat the rest with 120 g sugar, the lemon and orange peel, 5 g cinnamon stick and vanilla extract for 10 minutes.
Mix the cornflour into the reserved milk. Strain the hot milk, add the mixture and cook over a medium heat, stirring, until bubbling and thick; continue stirring for 1–2 minutes.
Pour into an approximately 25 × 20 cm dish, cover the surface and let the steam subside. Refrigerate for at least 8 hours.
Cut into pieces, coat in flour and beaten egg and fry in the olive oil at 175°C in small batches for 2–3 minutes per side until golden. Drain.
Mix the remaining 60 g sugar with 2 g ground cinnamon and coat the warm fried milk.
