Let’s get cooking

Method

Heat the milk with the double cream, rice, lemon peel, 5 g cinnamon stick and salt.
Simmer gently for 30–35 minutes, stirring often so the rice releases starch without sticking.
Add the sugar and vanilla extract and cook for another 5 minutes. Remove the lemon peel and cinnamon stick.
Divide into shallow dishes, allow the steam to subside and refrigerate for at least 2 hours. Serve with the remaining gram of ground cinnamon.
