This is another one from my mother. I haven't made it myself, but I have eaten plenty of it-- it is sooooo good. I am not big on nuts, but it really does taste good to have the almonds in there.

Cook for 5 mins then add the rice, stock and Cardomon pods Give it all a good stir - stick the lid on and cook it for about 25 minutes on a low heat (check it after about 15 - 20 minutes to make sure there is still liquid in it so it doesn't burn - if it has dried out just stick a bit of hot water in)
