• In a saucepan, combine rice & water. Bring to boil, then turn heat down to low & cook 10 minutes, stirring frequently with wooden spoon.
• Warm milk & stir into rice along with half the sugar [NOTE: If your preference is for a less-sweet pudding, consider reducing the 3/4 cup to 2/3 cup, then use HALF OF THAT at this time]. Cover & continue to cook over very low heat for 20 minutes or until most of the liquid has been absorbed, stirring occasionally.
• Dissolve cornstarch in as little cold water as possible (about 2 tablespoons, but make sure it is FULLY dissolved) & add to rice.

• Add the cream, and cook, stirring, until the mixture is steaming. Remove from heat, and discard lemon peel. Stir in vanilla. Continue to stir until the mixture has cooled slightly; then press a piece of plastic wrap directly onto the surface of the rice to prevent a skin from forming.
