Spanish style rice pudding, serve as is or cold with fresh fruit.

Method:
1. Place the rice, milk, apricots, sultanas, bayleaf, nutmeg, orange rind and juice and sugar in a medium non-stick saucepan. 2. Heat this rice mixture until it is almost boiling, then reduce the heat and gently simmer, uncovered, for 30-40 minutes or until the rice is tender. Ensure you stir the rice occasionally to prevent sticking and if the pan becomes too dry add a little more milk.
This rice pudding can be served warm or chilled, spooned into bowls and sprinkled with a little cinnamon.
