Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups cooked brown rice
• 1/4 cup slivered almonds
• 1/4 cup raisins
• 6 cardamom pods
• 5 whole cloves
• Pinch salt
• 3 cups milk
• 2 tablespoons honey

Instructions

1. Put the brown rice, almonds, raisins, cardamom pods, whole cloves, salt, milk, and honey in a large saucepan and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 to 15 minutes, stirring occasionally, or until the milk is absorbed and the mixture has thickened and it resembles risotto. Serve the rice pudding hot or cold and top with seasonal fruit such as mango or berries.
