Ingredients
- 1/3 cup Basmati rice
- 2 cups Milk
- 1/2 tsp Cardamom
- 1/4 cup Sugar
- 2 tbsp Pistachios
- 1 tsp Rose water
Steps
- Rinse the rice until the water runs clear; surface starch makes gluey pudding.
- Simmer the rice in the milk over the lowest heat, stirring every few minutes so it does not catch.
- After 25 minutes the grains should be breaking down and the mixture visibly thickening.
- Stir in the sugar and ground cardamom; cook 5 more minutes.
- The pudding is done when it coats the back of a spoon; it thickens further as it cools.
- Stir in the rose water off the heat.
- Serve warm or chilled, topped with crushed pistachios.
