Rice Pudding

Rice pudding is a dish which is prepared across the world. In the Southern part of India, this dish is prepared on special occassions / festivals. In telugu, it is reffered as "Paramannam". This has been my favourite since my childhood. This is the first time I prepared it on my own and hence this is on my blog. Hope you all enjoy reading this recipe.
