In any occassion back home in India my father use to make this dish for us ... he loves it ... so do i the flavour n the taste remains still in my memory . There are too many recipes out there on internet ... Read more . im just uploading one of my way to make it ... it goes very well with mutton or chicken curry even with green peas n potato curry (the recipe which i willupload asap) or with fava ( pigeonpea) cooked with spinach .... or just simply some raita ( yogurt salad) Hope u Enjoy the recipe !!!!!! Ingredients:
1 1/2 cup of good quality basmati rice |
3 tbsp of clarified butter ( ghee) or oil |
1 tbsp of cummin seeds |
1 tbsp of carom seeds ( parsely seeds) |
1 bay leaves |
1 small onion |
2-3 cloves |
1 small cinnamon stick |
3-4 peper corns |
few cashewnuts for garnish |
salt to taste |
2 cups water to boil the rice .. |
