Ingredients

Printable 🖨 shopping 🛒 list & 👩‍🍳 method for this recipe

• 1 cup of basmati rice
• 2 tablespoons of vegetable oil
• 1 large onion, peeled and finely chopped
• 2 teaspoons of white cumin seeds
• Chopped coriander leaves to garnish

Mise en place

• Rinse the rice in a sieve under cold running water, stirring with your hands until the water runs clear.
• Drain well

Method

1. Cook the rice in lots of boiling water until the rice is soft on the outside but still has a tiny bite to it. About 11 to 12 minutes
2. Remove from the heat and drain in a sieve
3. Meanwhile, add the oil and onions to a large pan and sauté until they just turn brown.
4. Stir in the cumin seeds.
5. Once they start to pop, stir in the rice.
6. Add half a cup of boiling water, cover with a lid, placing a cloth between the pan and the lid being careful not to catch it alight!
7. Simmer gently for a further 5 minutes then remove from the heat and let it stand for 7 minutes so all of the water is absorbed
