    Serves 2-3

    Ingredients

    500 grams (2 cups) Basmati or other long grain rice
    2 tbsp ghee
    1 medium onion, finely sliced
    6 cardamoms
    6 cloves
    8 peppercorns
    1 tsp turmeric
    2 inch piece lemon grass
    2 inch piece cinnamon
    2 1/2 cups chicken stock
    1 cup coconut milk
    2 level tsp salt


    Method

    Wash and drain the rice. Set it aside. Heat ghee in a large
    saucepan. Add the onion and fry until transparent. Add all
    the ingredients including the rice. Fry, stirring constantly
    for 2-3 mins.

    Put into a rice cooker or pot. Pour in chicken stock and
    coconut milk. Cook until the moisture evaporates. When the
    rice is cooked, the spices will emerge on the top. Remove
    the spices and stir slightly with a fork.

    Transfer to a serving dish and serve hot.
