Wash the rice. Put milk in a pan, boil it and put rice in. Let it boil for almost ten minutes. When rice becomes soft, add sugar, cardamom powder, dried fruit of your choice, almonds and pistachios. Mix well and turn off the gas. You can eat it hot or you can keep it in the freezer after it is cool and serve cold. Enjoy, you will love it.
