In the pan, melt the clarified butter.

In a mixing bowl, combine the rice with the mango purée, 100 g of raisins (from each variety), and 150 g of pistachios.

Pack the rice firmly in the pan with the butter to form a compact layer. Cover with parchment paper and a weight, then bake for 40 minutes in the oven.
