kheer (rice pudding)

1.2 L milk
75 g basmati rice, rinsed
100 g sugar
150 g rasins, golden & corinth
1 piece of cinnamon, or a couple tbsp cinnamon powder
6 cardamon (pods? seeds?) 
2 tsp rosewater
flaked almond 

Sorry, I converted these measurements when I made it but didn't write it down, plus it was probably to ml and wouldn't help you much anyway..... just google it and you can find out! 

boil milk, add rinsed rice and stir w/ a wooden spoon for 10 min, leave to cook at least one hour, stirring occasionally on very low heat. Add sugar, rasins, cinnomon and cardamon and cook for another hour, stirring frequently (i'm pretty sure I didn't cook it this long). At the end of the cooking time, it should look like cream. After taking it off the heat add rosewater and stir, transfer to a serving bowl, sprinkle flaked almond and refridegerate until you're ready to eat!
