Elaichi Powder (Cardamom Powder) - 1/4 teaspoon

First heat the milk in a pan. Cook till the milk boils well.
When the milk boils, add the soaked rice to it. Keep the flame on low-medium and keep stirring till the rice gets mixed in the milk.
Slowly the kheer will thicken. You will see that the mixture of rice and milk is getting converted into a thick texture. This process will continue for 30-40 minutes.
When the rice boils well and the kheer becomes thick, add the sugar and cardamom powder. You can adjust the taste of the sugar as per your liking.
Now add raisins and some almonds and pistachios and cook for 5-10 minutes more so that they also become soft and give a good flavour.
Let the Kheer cool down before serving and then garnish with almonds and pistachios.
Serve it cold or hot as you like and enjoy with friends and family members!
If you want to make Kheer more creamy and rich then you can add condensed milk to it, but then make it soft.
