Ghee Rice (Buttered Rice)
Ingredients:
2 c Basmati rice or other long-grain rice
1 c ghee or butter
1 large onion, finely sliced
4 cloves
6 cardamom pods, crushed
1 3-inch piece cinnamon stick
3 1/2 c hot beef, chicken, or mutton stock;
or water and stock cubes
2 1/2 tsp salt
Method:
Wash rice well and drain at least 30 minutes. Heat ghee in a saucepan and sauté onion until golden; add spices and rice. Sauté, stirring with perforated metal spoon for 5 minutes over moderate heat. Add hot stock and salt and bring to a boil. Reduce heat to very low, cover pan tightly, and cook 15-20 minutes without lifting lid. At end of cooking time, uncover and allow steam to escape; let it stand for 5 minutes. Gently fluff up rice with fork, removing whole spices. When transferring rice to a serving dish, use perforated metal spoon to avoid crushing rice grains. Serve hot, accompanied by curries of meat and vegetables, pickles, and sambols.
