1/2 tbsp ghee
1 1/2 cups basmati rice
2" cinnamon
2 bay leaves
2 cloves
2 cardamom
1/2 tsp salt to taste
1/4 tsp saffron
water
Wash and drain the rice. Heat the ghee in the rice cooker, then add the spices and sauté for a minute. Then add the drained rice and saffron and sauté until transparent. Then add water 1" higher than the rice and cover and cook the rice. Once the rice is cooked fluff and serve hot.
Note: Use a spoon that will not scrape the bottom of the rice cooker.
