| 1. Turn stove to maximum. In a large pot add water. Peel most of the rind from one lemon and add the peels to the pot. Set lemon aside and turn stove down to medium. | 2. Add salt and margarine. | 3. When water is boiling, add rice. Stir constantly. | 4. When most of the liquid boils away, add 1/2 cup of milk. Stir. Repeat this step until all the milk is added. | 5. Remove rind from pot. | 6. Grate the rest of the lemon zest and add it. Add sugar. Remove pot from element. | 7. Slowly stir in egg yolks. (add a little bit of milk to the yolks first). | 8. Return pot to the element just until the rice boils. Stir constantly to avoid burning! | 9. Pour into casserole dish and allow to cool slightly before covering. | 10. Just before serving, sprinkle cinnamon on top. | 11. Tip: for a stronger lemon flavour, use two lemons. Peel most of the rind from one for the cooking process, and grate most of the zest from a second lemon to add at the end. For a weaker flavour, use only one lemon and make it stretch for both. | ---------------------------------------------------------------------------
