Method
step 1
Butter the slow cooker all over the base and half way up the sides. Heat the milk to a simmer. Mix the pudding rice and the milk and pour into the slow cooker. Add the orange zest, and spices. Cook for 4 hours on low and stir once or twice if you can. If after 3 hours the rice pudding is beginning to stick to the base of the cook, add a splash of water. The rice will be tender when cooked. Add 100ml milk to loosen the pudding, if necessary.
step 2
Serve topped with orange segments and honey, fruit and raisins, if you like.
