Method
In heavy saucepan, bring milk to boil; whisk in rice flour and sugar. Cook over medium-high heat, stirring constantly, until mixture is thickened enough to coat back of spoon, about 8 minutes. Let cool for 10 minutes.
Stir in rose water. Pour into five 3/4-cup (175 mL) ramekins or custard cups. Place on tray; cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours or for up to 12 hours.
In small skillet, melt butter over medium-high heat; cook raisins until plump, about 2 minutes. Let cool. Sprinkle raisins and pistachios over puddings.
