Ingredients

Full cream milk - 1 litre

Soaked basmati rice - 1/4th small bowl

Sugar - 7 tbsp

Cardamom powder (elaichi powder) - 1 tsp

Chopped almonds - 2 tsp

Saffron dissolved in rose water - 5-6 strands in 1 tbsp of rose water

3. You can use jaggery instead of sugar to give it a different flavour.
4. You can also used cooked rice instead of cooking the rice with the recipe.
