This rice pudding recipe was inspired by a traditional recipe, but adapted to be more consistent (less liquid) and not as sweet (which is why it only contains the sugar from the condensed milk and a little cinnamon). Be careful not to choose a saucepan that is too small, as the milk tends to increase in volume when boiling and there is a risk of it running out of the pan.
