Wash the rice thoroughly with water 2-3 times and drain the water. Add enough water and soak for about 30 minutes.

Wash cilantro and mint thoroughly with water and keep it ready.

Add the green chillies, garlic cloves, ginger, cilantro and mint to the mixer jar.

Grind everything to a fine paste and keep it ready.

Heat 4 tbsp of oil + ghee in a pressure cooker or any heavy bottomed vessel.

Add cinnamon sticks, cloves, star anise, bay leaves, fennel seeds, cumin seeds, bay leaves, cardamom and sauté for 20 seconds or until nice aroma arises.

Add sliced onions, little salt and sauté really well until they turn to golden brown color.


Now add the chopped tomatoes and sauté well until they turn mushy.

At this stage add the ground mint & coriander paste.

Mix really well for about a minute or until the raw smell vanishes.

Add red chilli powder, coriander powder, turmeric powder and mix really well for another minute or two.

Now add 4.5 cups of water, required salt and let it come to rolling boil.

Add 3 tbsp. of curd/yogurt mix really well and let it come to boil again.

Add the washed and soaked rice and give a stir.

Let it come to rolling boil, close the lid and pressure cook for 2 whistles. If you are cooking in a heavy bottomed vessel, cover with tight lid and cook for about 15-20 minutes.
