Rinse the basmati rice under cold water until the water runs clear. Soak the rice in water for about 30 minutes, then drain and set aside.

In a large saucepan, bring the milk to a boil over medium heat. Add the soaked and drained basmati rice to the boiling milk and reduce the heat to low.
3. Simmer
Simmer the rice in milk for about 30-35 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking. Cook until the rice is tender and the mixture thickens.

Remove from heat and stir in the chopped nuts. Reserve some for garnish if desired.
