To prepare Nolen Gurer Payesh Recipe, wash and soak rice for half an hour. Drain.

Take milk in a heavy bottomed pan. Add bay leaf and cardamom. Heat the milk over a high flame.

Once the milk starts to boil, simmer it and stir in between regularly so that milk doesn't stick to bottom or char.

Once the milk thickens a bit, add the drained rice, mix. Continue to stir in between.

Once the rice is almost done, switch off.

Add the jaggery. Stir slowly and take care that the milk doesn't curdle.

Switch on and bring to boil just once. Finish off adding chopped nuts.

Allow the Nolen Gurer Payesh Recipe cool down completely, and serve chilled, for dessert.
