Instructions:
- Gather all your ingredients.

- 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.
- 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.
- 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.
- Stir in the raisins, chopped pistachio nuts, and cashew nuts.
- Mix well to distribute them evenly throughout the pudding.
- Once everything is well combined and the pudding is warm throughout, remove the pan from the heat.

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