This authentic Greek dessert is almost like a lemon custard with rice.

Youll be impressed by its creaminess, especially considering that it has no
milk in it.

Combine water, rice, optional butter and salt in a small saucepan. Bring to
a boil, lower the heat to a very quiet simmer, cover, and cook until the rice is tender. This will take approximately 20 minutes.

Remove the rice from the stove, and beat in the eggs. Continue to beat well
for a minute or two.

Stir in sugar, lemon rind and juice and vanilla. Transfer to a bowl.

Sprinkle the top generously with cinnamon and cool to room temp. Then cover
tightly and refrigerate until cold. Serve cold or at room temp.

Prep Time: 30 min

Yield: 3 - 4 servings

This is extremely good.
