For the rice pudding
- In a deep saucepan bring to boil the rice and the milk with the cinnamon stick and the orange peels over high heat.
- Reduce the heat to low and cook the rice in the milk stirring often until it is almost ready. At that time add the sugar and finish cooking, about two minutes. If it is necessary add a little more milk, it should be creamy.

Notes
It is normal that when the rice pudding cools it absorbs part of the liquid and the texture becomes more compact. What you have to do is add a little more milk and mix until it is creamy again.
