½ cup basmati rice
2 tbsp ghee
2½ tsp cumin seeds

1. Wash rice about 3 times or until water runs clear. Soak in water for at least 30 minutes. When ready, bring a pot of water to boil. Salt generously and add the rice in. Stir occasionally. Rice should be cooked in 10-15 minutes. Drain water completely. Allow the rice to stand in the strainer for a couple of minutes to ensure all the water is removed.  Spread on a baking sheet to cool.

2. Dry roast 1 tsp cumin seeds until fragrant on medium, about a minute or so. Finely grind into a fine powder in a mortar and pestle. In a separate little pot, heat ghee on medium. Add rest of the cumin seeds and crackle for about 30 seconds to a minute. Mix this into the rice along with the powdered cumin.

3. Serve hot!
