Rice Pudding!

It is a delicious sweet dish from India, especially from West Bengal. We called it 'Payas' or 'Payasam'.
Ingredients: 1 ltr milk, 1 fistfull and a little of Gobindabhog Atap (scented rice), bay leaf, raisins and sugar (as required).
First boiled the milk on low flame with 2 bayleaves for a while. Add washed rice into it and keep boiling until the rice get soft. Now add sugar and keep boling. Remember that, after adding sugar, the rice would not get soft any more, so before adding sugar just make sure that the rice is done enough. When the milk and rice get thickened, add raisins and move from the flame. Let it cool and serve with chopped cashew nuts over it.
