Ingredients

Instructions

  1. Rinse the rice, soak it in water for 20 minutes, then drain and pat dry on a clean towel.
  2. Blend the rice in short pulses until it has a coarse, semolina-like texture.
  3. Rinse a heavy-bottomed pot, leave a spoonful of water in it, then pour in the milk and cook on medium heat for 15 minutes, stirring often.
  4. Grind the saffron strands to a fine powder with a mortar and pestle and set aside.
  5. Stir in the ground rice and cook for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring often and scraping the sides.
  6. Stir in the sugar, saffron and Thandai Masala and cook for 10 more minutes until creamy; it will thicken as it cools, so do not overcook.
  7. Let it cool to room temperature, then cover and refrigerate overnight. If short on time, divide into bowls and chill for at least 30 minutes.
  8. Garnish with sliced pistachios and dried rose petals.
