Instructions
Watch how to make this recipe.
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot, bring the rice, milk, and cardamom to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring constantly with a heat-safe spoonula to help keep the milk from burning.
Reduce the heat so that the milk is gently simmering and cook for 45 to 50 minutes, stirring often. The rice should be tender and the milk will have reduced by half, giving a porridge-like consistency.
Add the sugar, rosewater or vanilla, and pistachios. Stir and turn off the heat.
Serve either warm or chilled, garnished with extra pistachios. Goes well with fresh fruit too.
Recommended wine: Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, Riesling
Asian works really well with Chenin Blanc, Gewurztraminer, and Riesling. The best wine for Asian food depends on the cuisine and dish - of course - but these acidic whites pair with a number of traditional meals, spicy or not. The Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc (OU Kosher) with a 4.1 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 12 dollars per bottle.
Baron Herzog Chenin Blanc (OU Kosher)
A fresh and round mouth feel with intense fruity notes of nectarine, gooseberry and pine with a bright, clean finish. A versatile wine to enjoy with spicy ethnic foods from Chinese to Indian. Also great as an aperitif.
