Steps

1

Firstly wash and soak the basmati rice

Next use the rice cooker or pressure cooker (I used the Philips pressure cooker for this recipe). Add the ghee (or butter if you prefer), next add the cinnamon and star anise, cloves, cardamom, bay leaf. Then add the ginger garlic paste to it, once the raw smell is gone add the onions and greens chilies to it. Keep stirring it until the onions turn translucent.

Once the onions are translucent, add the basmati rice to it and keep stirring it allowing to mix well with the rest of the ingredients. Next add the water to it (follow the water measurements as advised on your rice cooker or pressure cooker manual)

After adding the water, pour 1 -2 tsp of ghee or butter to this, and close the lid and let it cook as required. Voila once the rice is cooked garnish it with roasted cashew nuts, sultanas, coriander leaves and even fried onions if you want the extra taste.
