Ingredients
4 cups Basmati rice
4 1/2 cups water
2 tbsp Ghee
1st drop of spices
1 cinnamon stick
3 cardamom pods
3 green cardamom pods
1/2 tbsp whole peppercorns
1/s tbsp coriander seeds
2nd drop of spices
1 full bay leaf
1/2 tbsp coriander
1/2 tsp black mustard seeds
1/2 tsp white mustard seeds
1/2 tsp cumin seeds
Instructions
Get 2 small bowls and measure the amounts needed for the 1st drop of spices in one, and the second drop of spices in the other.
Turn the Instant Pot on high and put in the ghee, heating until melted.
Put in your first drop of spices and let it sizzle in the ghee
Once all of the green cardamom pods pop, add in your second drop of spices.
Once the mustard seeds start to pop, dump in the rice. Stir to allow the spices to mix into rice evenly.
Fry the rice with the spices, continuing to stir until it starts to look off-color (about 3-5 minutes).
Pour in the water, then put the Instant Pot in rice mode and turn on Steam. Once it beeps, release the pressure and turn on “keep warm” if desired.
