Full recipe including hints and tips here: www.kitchensanctuary.com/pila...
Ingredients:
1 tsp vegetable oil
2 tsp unsalted butter
1 small onion - peeled and finely diced
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
6 cardamom pods
6 cloves
2 tsp turmeric
2 bay leaves
300 g Basmati or long grain rice
600 ml boiling water
Method:
1. Heat the oil and butter in a pan until the butter melts. Add the onion and cook on medium heat for 5 minutes until softened.
2. Add in the cumin seeds, cardamom pods, cloves, turmeric and bay leaves.
3. Heat through, whilst stirring for a further minute.
4. Add the rice and stir to coat in the spices.
5. Add the boiling water, stir once and bring back to the boil, then place a lid on the pan and turn the heat down to very low (I use the lowest heat if cooking on gas, or setting 5 (of 10) for induction). Cook for 20 minutes.
6. Once cooked, turn the heat off. Leave the lid for a few minutes, then remove the lid, fluff the rice using a fork and serve. You can discard the cardamom and bay leaves.
Tip: If you don’t remove the lid after cooking, the rice should retain its heat for 20-30 minutes.
