I always cook vegetable rice. This time i wanted something different n decided to go abit coastal. I missed my coconut milk to bring it all together but it still was aromatically 😋 #myuniquericerecipecontest

Steps

30mins

1

Wash your rice and place aside
2

Pound your cardamons seeds lightly so that they open up n put in your sufuria with water. Add a pinch of pilau masala and salt then put on a source of heat to boil
3

Add oil to the boiling water n place in your rice
4

When the water has reduced slightly, reduce your heat to very low n cover the rice. Let it cook on the low heat till all the water dries up. Do not stir at this point
5

When cooked, the cardamom seeds come on top. Its work is done and u can pick them out n throw away as the flavor is already infused in the rice
6

Serve with desired stew. I ate with stewed green grams. I always eat rice with banana. Its optional 😉
