Instructions

1. Rinse the rice at least three times, then soak it for 20 to 30 minutes and drain.
2. In a pressure cooker or pot, fry the cashews in ghee until lightly golden, add the raisins and stir until they plump, then set them aside.
3. In the same pan, fry the sliced onion until golden and just caramelized but not burnt. Set aside for garnish.
4. Add the whole spices to the pan and fry for about 1 minute until fragrant. Add the green chilies and drained rice and fry over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes, stirring to prevent burning.
5. Add water and salt as needed. Taste the water; it should be slightly salty.
6. In a pressure cooker, cook on medium heat until you hear 1 whistle. In a pot, cover and cook on very low heat until the rice is fully cooked but not mushy.
7. Once the pressure has released, open the lid and fluff the rice gently with a fork.
8. Transfer to a serving dish and garnish with raisins, cashews, fried onions and coriander leaves.
