1 liter full-fat milk
50g basmati rice (soaked, ground to a paste)
80g dark chocolate (chopped)
3 tbsp sugar
1 tbsp cocoa powder
½ tsp cardamom powder
2 tbsp chopped pistachios
Boil milk in a pan, stirring it all the time, until it begins to thicken.
Add the ground rice paste, stirring thoroughly to avoid lumps while it simmers.
Add sugar, cocoa powder, and cardamom powder, making sure all of them dissolve well.
Add chopped chocolate and let it melt and mix into the creamy phirni.
Pour into bowls, refrigerate, and top with minced pistachios before serving.
