Indian rice pudding is made with starchy basmati rice and flavored with pistachios, cardamom, and rosewater, which imbues the dessert with a captivating oriental aroma. For this recipe, the rice is not rinsed: the starch that coats it is essential for the pudding's amazing consistency. If you can't find rosewater, you can add any extract of your choice, such as vanilla or almond.

Cooking the dish according to the recipe:
