Take a heavy or nonstick pan butter the base a little so as not to
let the milk stick add the milk and heat slowly to boiling (make sure it
doesn't boil over!). Add 1/2 a tablespoon of the ghee the rice and mix well so
that they are all covered then add the rice to the boiling milk. Once the rice
is cooked in the boiling milk which should take 7 minutes or so, add the sugar
and stir well. Keep this mixture on the boil until it starts to thicken it
should change to a darker almondy colour. Once done add almonds, pistachios and
cardamom seeds. You can eat it hot or cold.
