Instructions
Soak the raisins in water to cover until needed.
Boil the rice in 4 cups boiling water for 5 minutes; DRAIN. Bring milk and sugar to a boil, add rice, lemon rind and cinnamon. Cook over low heat until rice has absorbed all the milk, stirring constantly. Stir in butter, drained raisins and egg yolks and let cool. Whip the egg white until stiff and fold into the rice.
Preheat oven to 350 F. Pour mixture into 6 buttered individual molds and bake for 45 minutes, or until a knife inserted in the center comes out clean.
