  • Heat a vessel with oil or ghee. Fry the thinly sliced onion until golden and crispy. Transfer it to a plate.
  • To the same oil in the vessel, add the raw spices(cardamom, cloves, cinnamon, bay leaves) and saute for a minute. And then add tomato. Saute until mushy. Now add ginger garlic paste, green chilies and saute until the raw smell vanishes. To this add turmeric powder and salt. Mix well. After a minute, add yogurt, coriander leaves chopped and give a fine stir. Check for salt. When done, add the drained rice and fried onion. Mix to coat well in the masala.
  • Now pour 4.5 cups of hot water to it (quantity of water is taken on the basis of rice taken,,,ie..  1 cup of rice = 1.5 cups of hot water) .
  • Close the lid and make the flame very low. Cook until all the water dried out. 
  • When done, drizzle saffron with milk mixture on the top and  let it cool for 5 minutes uncovered. Gently mix the rice and  top it with toasted egg, chopped coriander leaves and some roasted nuts , raisins. Drizzle 2 tsp of ghee on the top and let it cook for another 5 minutes in a low flame.
