This dessert brings together the floral flavours and creaminess of rose phirni with the elegant layered presentation of a parfait. Instead of serving phirni plainly, which in itself is great, it is layered like a classic parfait with whipped cream and crunchy bits like biscuits. You get softness, crispiness and a range of textures, which is a delight to savour.

Step 1: Preparing the rose phirni

Coarsely grind the basmati rice in a blender and set aside.
Take a saucepan and bring ½ litre of milk to a boil.
Add the coarse rice powder to the milk, stirring to avoid lumps.
Cook on low heat until the rice is fully cooked and the mixture thickens.
Add sugar and rose essence (or rose syrup), stir well.
Fold in the chopped pistachios, almonds, and cashews.
Let the mixture cool slightly, then chill in the refrigerator until set or cold.

Repeat layers, if height permits. Garnish the top with chopped nuts and a few rose petals or dried rose buds.
