Ingredients:

Serving

2/3 cup basmati rice
4 cups 1% low-fat milk, divided
1/8 tsp saffron threads, crushed
2/3 cup sugar
1/2 cup sweetened dried cranberries
3 tbsp sliced almonds, toasted
1/8 tsp vanilla extract
1 tsp grated orange rind
3 tbsp shelled dry-roasted pistachios, finely chopped

Directions:

Rinse rice with cold water; place in a small bowl. Cover with water to 1 inch above rice; soak 1 hour. Drain well. Combine 2 tablespoons milk and saffron in a small bowl; let stand 30 minutes.
Place remaining milk in a medium saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium heat. Stir in rice, saffron mixture, and sugar; cook 30 minutes or until rice is tender, stirring occasionally.
Stir in cranberries, almonds, and vanilla; cook 2 minutes. Remove from heat; stir in rind. Spoon about 1/2 cup rice mixture into each of 6 small bowls. Sprinkle each serving with 1 1/2 teaspoons pistachios.
