Preparation time : – 20 minutes Serves : – 2

How to Prepare : – Finely chop the onion into thin slices. Break the cinnamon stick and set it aside. Take two cups water and boil it and set it aside. Now take a pan and add the ghee and bring to heat. Add the cloves, pepper corns, cinnamon and bay leaf and let it crackle. Sauté till the colour of the bay leaf changes and add the onion. Till the onions turn soft and pink, sauté. Put in the rice and sauté briefly. Pour the warm water and bring to boil. When it begins to boil add the salt and stir well. Simmer and cook for fifteen minutes or till the rice is done. Ensure that all the water has evaporated. Ghee is a binding agent and so with a fork you will have to spread out the rice in such a way that all the grains a separate from each other.
