Instructions

  1. Step 1

    Whisk cornstarch and sugar together in a small saucepan. Slowly pour in milk, whisking constantly to avoid lumps.

  2. Step 2

    Set the pan over medium heat and stir constantly until the mixture thickens and comes to a gentle simmer, about 5 minutes.

  3. Step 3

    Remove from heat and stir in rose water until fully mixed. Pour into serving bowls and let cool for 1–2 minutes.

  4. Step 4

    Top each pudding with crushed pistachios and fresh strawberry slices. Serve warm or chilled.
