I wash the cherries, remove the stalks and pit them. I stir 5 tablespoons of nectar, 3 tablespoons of sugar, lemon peel and starch until smooth. Boil up the remaining nectar, stir in the starch, bring to the boil again and simmer for about 1 minute, stirring.
First I remove the lemon, then I add the cherries and simmer everything while stirring for 1-2 minutes. I let the cherries cool down.
I boil the milk and a pinch of salt in a pot. Then I stir in the rice pudding, boil everything up again and let the rice swell for 25-35 minutes at low heat. I stir from time to time, so that nothing burns.
Finally, I stir the cream and vanilla sugar into the rice. Possibly I let the rice cool down a little or completely.
In the meantime I mix the cinnamon with 2 tablespoons of sugar. I arrange the rice pudding with the cherries in deep plates and decorate everything with a balm leaf. Everyone sprinkles the cinnamon sugar over it himself.
