Bring 900 ml of milk to a boil with the almonds, sugar, and egg yolk, then simmer for 5-8 minutes over low heat, stirring constantly. Meanwhile, whisk the rice flour with the remaining milk until smooth. Add this mixture to the hot almond milk and continue to simmer for about 10 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent clumping or burning. Stir in the sugar until dissolved. Finally, add the almond extract. While the pudding is still warm, pour it into bowls and let it cool. Garnish with almonds and pistachios before serving.
