Creamy Almond, Pistachio & Rice Pudding
I must admit that I am not a huge rice pudding fan. It never fascinated me much, as I prefer rice in savory and not sweet dishes. It's the long weekend here in New Zealand, so with Monday off I thought I will make a dessert. Its cold, windy and rainy outside and so a cold dessert didn't really cut it. I thought about various things to make and found some slivered almonds and pistachios in the pantry. While I was thinking of what to make, I also had to make some rice for our Indian lunch and then I thought I should really give rice pudding a try .... Now that it has been made and I did a taste test, I am actually slightly impressed! Can't wait to serve this to K and little miss D :)
ENJOY!

Cooking Instructions
- 1
Wash the rice in some water. Bring the milk in another large sauce pan to a boil. To it add the washed rice and cook over medium heat until the rice is fully cooked through. This takes about 20minutes.
- 2
Next step is to add the sugar and saffron strands. I have mentioned 3-4 tbsp of sugar, you can add less or more (hopefully not too much more) according to your taste. Let this cook for another 5 mins.
- 3
Remove from the heat and add the nuts and the cardamom powder. Give it all a good mix. I let it sit for about 15mins before serving this.

This dessert can be served both warm and cold.

The World's Best Rice Pudding The World's Best Rice Pudding
I love rice pudding!! I found a recipe that is very close to my favorite store brand and refined it to what I am sharing with you now. You can thank me by marking this recipe as a favorite and making it often, and you will once your family and friends get a taste of it. I'm NOT a fan of raisins in rice pudding. In fact, I don't believe they belong in rice pudding. I included them in this recipe for those of you that are on #TeamRaisin. Enjoy and share your opinion (of the recipe, not the raisin controversy). I'd like to know how it turns out!!
