Instructions

1

In a medium-sized saucepan, rinse the Basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Drain well.

2

In the same saucepan, combine the rinsed rice, milk, sugar, cardamom powder, and cinnamon powder.

3

Place the saucepan over medium heat and bring the mixture to a gentle boil, stirring occasionally.

4

Reduce the heat to low and simmer the rice mixture, stirring occasionally, for about 30 minutes or until the rice is cooked and the mixture has thickened to a pudding-like consistency.

5

Remove the saucepan from the heat and stir in the raisins and chopped nuts.

6

Let the Basmati Rice Pudding cool slightly before serving. It can be enjoyed warm or chilled.
