EGYPTIAN MILK PUDDING (MIHALLABIYA)

This sounds very interesting indeed. I have no idea how long it would take to grind rice and I wonder if rice flour wouldn't work?. I'm guessing at the time required. Posted for Zaar World TourIII. *Update Aug 31 '09: those who know say that rice flour will not work here. You'll need ground rice to make this recipe come out right. I have also lowered the sugar content.Thanks you ladies for the insight :D
