- Add the drained rice and stir gently to coat it with the spices.
- Pour in the hot water, then add the salt, ginger powder and saffron milk and mix well. Bring to a rolling boil over medium-high heat, then reduce the heat to low, cover and cook for 10 minutes.
- Turn off the heat and leave it covered for 10 more minutes. Add rose water if using, then fluff the rice gently with a fork.
- Top the rice with the fried onion, nuts and raisins, then garnish with diced apple, pomegranate seeds and rose petals.
