Spiced Rice Recipe - Glen And Friends Cooking - Easy Masala Rice Recipe
This is an easy to make spiced or masala rice recipe that goes great with our Lamb Shank Nihari - Lamb Shank Curry recipe. This rice recipe is based on dishes we ate during our journey through India and along the Pakistan border. It's loosely based on a Pakistani spiced rice.

Ingredients:
250 mL (1 cup) Basmati rice
30 ml (2 Tbsp) ghee
1 onion, sliced thin
2 mL (½ tsp) salt
1 black cardamom pod
2 mL (½ tsp) cumin seeds
3 whole cloves
5 mL (1 tsp) whole black peppercorns
3 green cardamom pods
½ cinnamon stick
1 bay leaf
375 mL (1½ cups) hot water


Method:
In a heavy pot with a tight fitting lid, melt the ghee over medium heat and brown the onions with salt.
Allow the onions to brown to nice deep golden brown colour.
Add whole spices to pot and stir to combine.
(Alternately you could grind the cumin. clove, and pepper before adding.)
Add the rice, and hot water; cover and reduce heat to medium low.
Let simmer for 18-20 minutes, then turn off the heat and allow to stand another 15 minutes before serving.
