In a large pot, bring the milk to a gentle boil over medium heat. Add the crushed cardamom pods and cloves.

Add the drained rice to the boiling milk. Stir well to combine and ensure the rice is evenly distributed.

Reduce the heat to low and let the kheer simmer for 30-40 minutes, stirring frequently to prevent sticking to the bottom of the pan and to help thicken the pudding.

Once the rice is cooked and the kheer has thickened, stir in the grated coconut and raisins (if using).
