Ingredients for 4 people

1 mug basmati rice
Stock cube
Pinch salt
1g butter
Chopped onion
1 3/4 mugs of hot water
Teaspoon whole garam masala spices (look at my entry on this site for whole garam masala)
Saucepan with a close fitting lid.

Directions

1. This recipe can be scaled up. It is well worth persevering and perfecting this as fried rice is essential to serve with most Indian meals

2. Wash the rice in a sieve and leave to drain
Fry the chopped onion in the butter with the spices, salt and crumbled stock cube. Do not allow to burn or colour.
Add the rice and stir round in the butter mixture.
Add the hot water and bring to the boil.
As soon as boiling, stir the rice once and reduce heat the lowest heat on your hob. Cover with a close fitting lid ans leave on the low heat for 14 minutes. After this remove from the heat and leave for a further 10 minutes.
During the cooking you should not remove the lid or look into the pan.
