Boil water with cinnamon sticks and lemon peels in a pot.

Add rice to the boiling water.

Cover the pot and cook until the rice is tender (10-15 minutes).

In a separate large pot, heat milk.

Add sugar to the heated milk and stir until dissolved.

Add the cooked rice to the milk mixture.

Cook over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking (approximately 1 hour).

Ensure the pudding doesn't become too thick.

Remove from heat and let cool slightly before serving.

Garnish with ground cinnamon before serving.
