Heat vegetable broth in a large pot.
Add rice and cook over medium heat, stirring constantly, until rice becomes opaque and somewhat chalky-looking, about 2 minutes.
Add almonds, cinnamon, cardamom, ginger, turmeric, and salt. Cook 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
Stir in raisins and boiling water. Cover and simmer until rice is tender and all the water is absorbed, about 60 minutes.
Stir in peas just before serving.
