Mishti Pulao






Fragrant Rice - 1 cup, I used Kalijeera / Gobindabhog, washed in water and rinsed
Spices - 1 bayleaf, 1 inch Cinnamon, 3 Whole Cloves, 1 green cardamom
Saffron - a few strands
Turmeric - a pinch
Dry Fruits - Cashewnuts and Raisins
Ghee - 1 tbsp
Salt
Sugar - 1 tbsp

Heat ghee in a heavy pan. Add the whole spices and cashew nuts. Once the nuts begin to change color, add the raisins.

Now add the washed rice. Mix well. Add 2 cups of water, salt and sugar. Add saffron and turmeric. Cover the lid and cook on medium low flame till water is absorbed and the rice is cooked.

Fluff with a fork and serve immediately.
