Ingredients:

1/2 cup white rice
120g
4 cups milk (1% fat)
920g
1 tsp cardamom
5g
1/2 cup sugar
120g
1/3 cup raisins
60g
1/3 cup pistachio nuts
50g
1/3 cup cashew
50g

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Ingredients:
- Gather all your ingredients.
- Chop the pistachio and cashew nuts roughly. Set aside.
2. Cook the Rice:
- Rinse the rice under cold water until the water runs clear.
- In a medium-sized saucepan, combine the rinsed rice and 4 cups of 1% milk.
- Bring it to a gentle boil over medium heat, stirring occasionally to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom.
3. Simmer the Pudding:
- Once the mixture reaches a boil, reduce the heat to low.
- Add the ground cardamom.
- Let it simmer uncovered, stirring occasionally, until the rice is tender and the mixture starts to thicken. This should take about 25-30 minutes.
4. Sweeten and Flavor:
- Stir in the sugar, ensuring it dissolves completely into the pudding.
- Continue to cook for another 5-7 minutes until the pudding reaches your desired consistency. If it gets too thick, you can add a little more milk to adjust.
5. Add the Dried Fruits and Nuts:
- Stir in the raisins, chopped pistachio nuts, and cashew nuts.
- Mix well to distribute them evenly throughout the pudding.
6. Final Touch:
- Once everything is well combined and the pudding is warm throughout, remove the pan from the heat.

7. Serve:
- Ladle the warm cardamom and rice milk pudding into serving bowls.
- Optionally, garnish with a few extra chopped pistachios or cashews on top for added crunch and presentation.
8. Enjoy:
- Serve immediately while warm, or let it cool and refrigerate for a chilled version of this delightful dessert.

Tips:

- Rinse the rice under cold water before cooking to remove excess starch and achieve a smoother texture.

- Stir the mixture frequently while cooking to prevent the rice from sticking to the bottom of the pot and burning.

- Adjust the sweetness to your taste by adding more or less sugar as desired.

- For a richer flavor, you can replace 1 cup of milk with 1 cup of coconut milk.

- Garnish with extra pistachios, cashews, or a sprinkle of ground cinnamon for added flavor and visual appeal.
