This recipe is very easy to make. No masalas or complicated procedures involved. Serve this rice with dal or a spicy side dish and enjoy.
Ingredients1 cup basmati rice
1/2 cup frozen green peas
2 cloves
1 small piece of cinnamon
7. In about 7-8 minutes the rice will absorb all the liquid and you will see a few bubbles on the top. At this stage, reduce the flame to low and cover with a lid for 10 minutes. Switch off the stove after 10 minutes. Let is rest for a couple of minutes after that.
8. Carefully mix with a slotted spoon and serve.

1 or 2 bay leaves
2 tsps jeera
3-4 green chillies
1 tsp ghee
1 tsp oil
Salt to taste
Method1. Soak the basmati rice in water for atleast 15 minutes. This makes the rice soft and fluffy when cooked.

3. Add the peas and saute till tender.
4. Drain the water from the rice completely and add to the pot.
5. Add the ghee and saute till the rice is slightly toasted.
6. Add the water (2 cups of water to 1 cup of rice) and salt and let it boil. Do not cover with a lid.

Wow, looks so simple and delicious. I am already able to guess the taste of it. How I wish we had a technology that could give a taste thru the pics :)
Hey Lakshmi, one doubt. In point 2, you said use a nonstick pot. But in the pic, it looks like a steel pot. I am confused :(
Hi Tweety
What I meant to say was a heavy bottomed pan or a non-stick pan. Will make the change. I appreciate you bringing up this point. Thanks
