Slowly stir the lemon mixture into the rice mixture and cook for 10 minutes longer. Remove the vanilla pod and discard.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 140C/120C fan/gas 1. Put the milk, cream, zest and vanilla pod in a saucepan. Gently bring to a simmer, then stir in the caster sugar and rice.
- Transfer mixture to a shallow ovenproof dish and dot the butter on top. Bake for 30 mins, then stir well and cook for 1 hr more until the pudding is soft and creamy, and a golden skin has formed on top. The depth and type of dish you use will affect the cooking time, so if the pudding seems too loose, return to the oven and check every 10 mins or so. Once cooked, rest for 10 mins before serving.

Tips:
- Use high-quality ingredients: The better the quality of your ingredients, the better your rice pudding will be. Use fresh lemons, real butter, and high-quality rice.
- Don't overcook the rice: The rice should be cooked through but still have a slight bite to it. Overcooked rice will make the pudding mushy.
- Let the rice pudding cool slightly before serving: This will allow the flavors to meld together and the pudding to thicken up.
- Serve the rice pudding with your favorite toppings: Some popular toppings include sliced almonds, whipped cream, and fresh berries.
Conclusion:
Lemon and almond rice pudding is a classic dessert that's easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. It's the perfect way to use up leftover rice, and it's a great make-ahead dessert. Whether you serve it warm or cold, with toppings or without, this rice pudding is sure to be a hit.
