Ingredients
Instructions
- You can use basmati rice or any other type of rice for this recipe.
- Wash it well and soak it in 4 tablespoons of water for 30 minutes
- The mango puree can be made from fresh mangoes or store-bought mango pulp is good too
- Add the pre-soaked rice into a blender jar along with whatever water that’s remaining in the bowl. Blend it briefly so the rice grains break up. It doesn’t have to be a very fine paste, I can best describe it as a little coarser than semolina
- Next will add the nuts into a grinder jar and grind this into a coarse powder
- Set a pot on medium-high heat preferably a nonstick one and let the milk come up to a boil
- Once the milk starts boiling add the rice that we just blended
- We’re going to keep boiling the milk until the rice is fully cooked
- Keep in mind that you have to scrape the bottom of the pot as you stir the milk because of rice grains have a tendency to settle down and stick to the bottom of the pot and it would burn
- Also scrape any cream that sticks on the walls of the pot and add them right back into the milk. After ~15 minutes the milk should look creamy and the rice should have cooked through
- It’s time to add in the sugar. You can add less or more depending on how sweet the mango puree is
- Next add in the green cardamom powder and powdered mixed nuts
- Sometimes the powder nuts tend to clump together so just take a whisk and break up the clumps
- After ~25 minutes can you will be able to see little bubbles forming and the milk would have thickened nicely!
- Now it’s time to off the heat and add in the mango puree and mix well
- Garnish with some chopped pistachios and chill this in the fridge for 2 hours at least
- Enjoy this with fresh mango pieces!

Notes
- If you want to make this recipe more decadent, add 1/2 cup of heavy cream to the milk
- Its important to turn off the heat and then add the mango puree because sometimes the milk tends to curdle when mango puree is added to hot milk
