reserved milk with the 1/4 cup water and pour into warm milk,
stirring constantly. Add almonds and keep stirring until mixture
thickens and bubbles. Use a whisk if mixture becomes lumpy. Add
cardamom to taste and the pounded saffron. Cook on low heat for 5
minutes, letting pudding simmer very gently. Stir occasionally.

pistachio nuts around edge of each dish. To serve firnee in the
traditional manner, the pudding should be poured into two plates,
decorated with pistachio nuts and cut into quarters to serve in
wedges.
