Instructions

  1. Mince the walnuts, almonds and pistachio in a food processor for 15-20 seconds.

  2. Mix the milk, sugar and corn starch in a bowl well until all the starch has assimilated. Bring the mix to a near boil on medium to low heat all while stirring continuously.

  3. When the pudding nears boiling and starts to thicken, add 2 table spoons of orange blossom water and stir for 3 more minutes.

  4. While the mix is still very hot pour half of it in your 2-inch deep serving tray (Pyrex glass), sprinkle half of the minced nuts on top then add the remaining pudding as another layer and finish by sprinkling the remaining nuts on top. You should have 2 layers of pudding and 2 layers of nuts.

  5. Let the tray rest for 30 minutes, then refrigerate for 1 hour prior to serving.
