Instructions
- Rinse the rice and soak it for one hour. Drain most of the water, reserving approximately 2 tablespoons. Grind the rice and the reserved water into a paste, then combine with ¼ cup of milk.
- In a heavy-bottomed pan, add ¼ cup water first, the remaining milk, and cardamom, and bring to a boil. The addition of water will help prevent the milk from burning. Reduce the heat and add the pistachios. Gradually incorporate the rice paste, stirring continuously to avoid lumps.
- Stir in the sugar and simmer the mixture until it begins to thicken. Once thickened, add the rose water and a few drops of pink food coloring. Continue stirring the firni intermittently until it reaches a creamy consistency, which may take around 30-40 minutes.
- At the end, stir in the heavy cream. Remove from heat and allow the firni to cool to room temperature before transferring it to a serving dish. Refrigerate until chilled.
- Garnish with chopped pistachios and rose petals. Serve cold!
Notes
- Start with ½ cup sugar and adjust according to taste.
