    Preparation Steps

    1

    Rinse the jasmine rice thoroughly in cold water until the water runs clear. This helps remove excess starch, ensuring the rice remains fluffy.

    2

    In a medium saucepan, bring the water to a boil with a pinch of salt and the cinnamon stick. Add the rice, then cover and reduce heat to low. Simmer for 12-15 minutes, or until the rice is fully cooked and the water is absorbed.

    3

    While the rice is cooking, soak the raisins in warm water for 5 minutes to soften them.

    4

    In a small skillet, melt the butter over medium heat. Add the almonds and toast for 2-3 minutes, or until golden brown and fragrant.

    5

    Once the rice is cooked, remove the cinnamon stick. Stir in the honey and the drained raisins.

    6

    Sprinkle with the toasted almonds, then gently mix to combine the flavors. Serve warm or at room temperature.
