Steps

1

In a deep, heavy-bottomed pot, combine all the ingredients while cold and stir well. Place over medium heat and continue stirring.
2

Stir the mixture from the center outward, repeating this motion and stirring constantly to prevent the pudding from sticking to the bottom of the pot.
3

Keep on low heat for at least 45 minutes, or until bubbles appear on the surface and the mixture thickens.
4

Pour the pudding into glass cups or bowls. This amount makes about 12 servings.
5

Once completely cooled, garnish with shredded coconut and nuts.
6

Note: For best results, soak the nuts a day in advance, drain, and lightly toast the pistachios and almonds before using.
