2 c Basmati rice
10 g Butter
3 Cardamom pods
1 Clove
1 Cinnamon stick
1.5 L Water
Wash the Basmati rice and rinse.
Put the rice in a pot with the butter and spices, and bring the water
to a boil on high heat.
After the water boils turn the heat down to low heat and put on the
lid. Steam for 10-11 minutes. Frequently open the lid and stir the
rice thoroughly.
Once the rice softens, drain the remaining water from the pot.
Quickly stir the rice, let it sit off the heat with the lid open for
five minutes to further cook from the remaining heat.
